Approval statuses

A submitted week can route to several approvers at once. Aevon tracks each approver's decision separately and rolls them up into one overall status — so you always know exactly who's blocking.

My submissions tab with per-approver status chips

Per-approver chips

In Approvals → My submissions, each submitted week shows a chip for every approver it routed to:

ChipMeaning
Pending (gray)The approver hasn't acted yet
Approved (green)The approver approved their group
Rejected (red)The approver rejected their group

Per-approver chips are deliberately more granular than a single lumped-together status: when a week is waiting, you can see precisely which approver still needs to act.

Overall period status

The week as a whole carries one status, derived from its requests:

StatusWhen
Not submittedStill in draft — not yet sent
SubmittedSent; no approver has acted yet
PartialAt least one approver has acted, but not all have
ApprovedEvery approval request has been approved
RejectedAn approver rejected — the week returns to draft

How multi-approver weeks resolve

Request 1 → Approver A ✅ Approved
Request 2 → Approver B ⏳ Pending ──► Week = PARTIAL
Request 3 → Approver C ✅ Approved

The week becomes Approved only when the last pending request is approved. A single rejection on any request sends the whole week back to Draft (with the rejecter's required comment), regardless of what the other approvers decided.
