The Approval Requests is a page where you can view and manage the pending approval requests or past ones. You can see all accepted, rejected and cancelled requests you have access to. Moreover, you can access the message for which approval was requested directly, thus greatly saving time hunting for unattended messages. See Approval Workflow, to learn more.

Unread Request Counter
You are alerted to new requests by means of the unread request counter (). It is a blue circle with a number inside it. The number signifies the count of requests unread by you. You can read the unread messages by accessing them directly from the list of requests. You will be taken to the message board of the respective activity. Once there you can approve or reject the message.
Cancelled Requests
When the requester posts a new request, the preceding unanswered request, i.e. neither approved, nor rejected, is canceled out, and a 'This request was cancelled' entry appears on the list of requests.
