All batch operations need to be validated by an approving user to take effect.

          Info

          

In order for a user to have approver user privileges, they must be elevated to that role To do this, access **Products menu > Settings > Access control > Manage Approvers** and register the user roles.

          Info

          

The approver user can view all the requests made by accessing the **Products menu > Reports > Events > Bulk operations**.
