Monitor approval plans to understand how the overall approval process is progressing.

## Antes de Iniciar

To monitor an approval plan, you must have already defined an approval rule. For more information on how to create approval rules, see [Create an approval rule](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/Y7CVGoLTJqTEdU5vefpKXQ "Create approval rules to ensure that the approval requests are reasonable and fit your organization's budget."). You can review and update the plans if required. Approval plans are not created manually.

Role required: admin

## Por Que e Quando Desempenhar Esta Tarefa

The approval engine converts each approval rule into one or multiple approval plans. You can monitor approval plans to understand how the overall approval process is progressing, the routing and decision methods used, the
list of approvers involved, the status of the approvals, the list of invoice lines the approval is planned for, and so on.

## Procedimento

1. Navigate to AllAccounts Payable OperationsAdministrationApproval plan.
2. Select a record.
3. On the Approval Plan form, review the fields.  
   For a description of the field values, see [Approval Plan form](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/VlzzdCv9BJbGqTMgSG2b0Q "Use the Approval Plan form to view details of the overall invoice approval process.").
