# Offer Approval :::info The Dynamics 365 App is in preview and is not yet listed on Microsoft AppSource. To try it, contact your Fours account team. ::: With offer approval, an approver reviews each offer before Fours creates it on AWS. A rep fills in the offer and submits it for approval. An approver then approves it, asks for a change or declines it. Only an approver creates the offer on AWS. Offer approval is off by default. The app applies it to every request, not only to the buttons that users see. ## Turn on offer approval A Dynamics 365 System Administrator turns on offer approval in the Fours Configuration table. The table has one row. Fours writes that row when an administrator connects Dynamics 365 in the Fours Console. 1. Go to [make.powerapps.com](https://make.powerapps.com) and select the environment of the app. 2. Select **Tables**. 3. Find and open the **Fours Configuration** table. 4. Open the row of the table in its form. 5. Select the **Offer approval** box, so that it shows a tick. 6. Select **Save**. ![The form of the Fours Configuration row in Dynamics 365, with the Offer approval box ticked and the Save button on the command bar](images/dynamics365-app-offer-approval-setting.png) To turn off offer approval, clear the **Offer approval** box and save the row. :::warning Do not change the other columns of the row. They hold the connection of the app to Fours. ::: :::note If an administrator connects Dynamics 365 again in the Fours Console, Fours writes the row again. After a new connection, make sure that the **Offer approval** box still has a tick. ::: ## Give the approver role Assign the Fours Approver security role to each person who approves offers. Give it together with Fours User or Fours Admin. Alone, the role gives the access of a Fours User. A Fours Admin or a System Administrator is not an approver without this role. See [Security roles](/dynamics365-app/dynamics365-app-security-roles/). ## Submit an offer for approval While offer approval is on, the main button of the create dialog is **Submit for approval** instead of **Create offer**. Every user submits a new offer for approval, and a Fours Approver does too. 1. Fill in the offer. See [Create and Manage Private Offers](/dynamics365-app/dynamics365-app-offer/). 2. Select **Submit for approval**. 3. Select **Confirm**. Before it submits, the dialog shows field errors and looks for an active agreement of the buyer, as Create offer does. Fours saves the offer as a draft and marks it as submitted. Fours then emails your organization. The email links to the Dynamics 365 opportunity. For the approval email scopes, see [Email notification](/settings/email-notification/#offers). On the Offers tab of the pane, the card of the offer shows Pending approval instead of Draft. If the draft is saved but the submit fails, a message says "Saved as a draft, but not submitted for approval". To submit it again, select **Continue editing** on its card, then select **Submit for approval**. ### When the approver sends it back The approver can ask for a change or decline the offer, with a comment. You get the comment by email and on the card of the offer, after "Approver:". | Card status | What it means | | --- | --- | | Action required | The approver asks for a change. | | Declined | The approver declined the offer. | To submit the offer again: 1. On the card of the offer, select **Continue editing**. 2. Make the changes that the approver asks for. 3. Select **Submit for approval**. 4. Select **Confirm**. ## Review an offer A Fours Approver reviews a submitted offer from the **...** menu of its card. The card can be on the Offers tab of the opportunity or on the Approvals tab. ![The ... menu of an offer card with the status Pending approval, with the Approval submenu open and its Approve, Request change and Decline items](images/dynamics365-app-approval-menu.png) To approve an offer and create it on AWS: 1. On the card of the offer, select **...**. 2. Select **Approval**, then select **Approve**. The Review offer dialog opens on the draft. 3. Review the offer. 4. Select **Approve & Create**. 5. Select **Confirm**. ![The Review offer dialog with the offer form, the product that you cannot change, and only the Cancel and Approve & Create buttons in the footer](images/dynamics365-app-review-offer.png) The Review offer dialog has no Save as draft button. Fours creates the offer on AWS and records that you approved it. The card then shows the status of the offer on AWS, for example Pending create. To ask for a change or decline the offer: 1. On the card of the offer, select **...**. 2. Select **Approval**, then select **Request change** or **Decline**. 3. Enter the comment for the rep. The comment is required and can have 1000 characters at most. 4. Select **Request change** or **Decline**. ## The Approvals tab A Fours Approver has an Approvals tab in the pane, on every opportunity. It lists the offers that wait for approval in your whole organization. ![The Approvals tab of the Fours pane with one Pending approval offer card that shows its opportunity link, product, channel, submitted date and buyer account](images/dynamics365-app-approvals-tab.png) The tab shows up to 100 AWS offers, and the offer that waits longest is first. Each card shows the opportunity of the offer and the date it was submitted. To open the opportunity, select its name. The title of a card opens the Offer details page. The **...** menu has the Approval actions, and they act on the opportunity of the offer. The Approvals tab does not have **Continue editing** or the other offer actions. Use the pane of the opportunity of the offer for them. If no offer waits for approval, the tab shows "No offers are waiting for approval." ## Offer sets You cannot submit an offer set for approval yet. While offer approval is on, only a Fours Approver can create an offer set. For other users, the **Create offer set** button is off, and its tooltip says why. See [Create an offer set](/dynamics365-app/dynamics365-app-offer/#create-an-offer-set). ## Related - [Create and Manage Private Offers](/dynamics365-app/dynamics365-app-offer/) - [The Fours Side Pane](/dynamics365-app/dynamics365-app-side-pane/) - [Security roles](/dynamics365-app/dynamics365-app-security-roles/) - [Dynamics 365 App FAQ](/dynamics365-app/dynamics365-app-faq/)
