Pending Approval

Pending Approval holds newly opened savings accounts awaiting authorisation before they go live. A maker-checker control: the account is captured by one officer and must be approved by a supervisor before deposits can be accepted. Use this queue to verify KYC and product selection prior to activation.

Workflow

Open Savings > Operations > Pending Approval.
Select a newly captured account from the queue.
Confirm member KYC, product, opening balance and signatory details are complete.
Click Approve to activate the account, or send it back for correction.
Confirm the account moves out of the queue into the active book.
