Using the Email Vote Buttons
If you receive an email from Jira Notifications (jiranotifications@cwf.org) you have been identified as an approver in your area for a Hospitality Approval Request.
Here is an example of the email mentioned. The Approval Groups section of the email indicates what groups need to approve the package. If there is only one group, only your evaluation is required.
The buttons at the bottom of this email are functional, clicking Approve will immediately submit your vote. If you Decline, you will be asked to provide a comment explaining why you declined. If any groups decline, the request will transition to a rewrite status. If the request is resubmitted for evaluation you will receive another email with the vote buttons.
