A request’s status can be updated as it moves through its lifecycle. A different status can be selected from within the Exploring, Planning, or Pending dispositions, or the request can be declined or approved.

Request Dispositions and Statuses contains details on the five available dispositions, and Requests contains details on configuring the available statuses within the dispositions.

Request records in the Exploring, Planning, and Pending dispositions display the Anticipated Approval Date field on the Overview tab. anticipated approval date


This field dictates how requests in these dispositions appear in approvals dashboards. For example, if a request has 2025 listed in the Grant Fiscal Year field but its Anticipated Approval  Date is within the 2026 fiscal year, the request will appear within the 2026 fiscal year in any approvals dashboards. 

The Anticipated Approval Date field cannot be edited directly on a request record, as it populates automatically based on another field. By default, the field that populates the Anticipated Approval Date field is the Meeting Date field. Contact your CSM if you would like one of the following fields to populate the Anticipated Approval Date field instead: 

  • Request Date
  • Project Start Date
  • Create Date

The date that is configured to populate the Anticipated Approval Date field appears after the Secondary Staff field on the modal when adding a new request. 

To edit the Anticipated Approval Date for a request, navigate to the Overview tab of the request record, and then click the pencil icon next to the field that is configured to populate the Anticipated Approval Date field.pencil icon
