# Manage Approval Requests in the Local HR Role

In the Local HR role, in the Local HR menu, go to LHR Core HR > **Approval Requests** to view approval requests for the employees within the areas of your responsibility, which are configured in the [Local HR settings](/v1/docs/managing-local-hrs).

In the Local HR role, you can only approve or reject only requests where you are the responsible person. All other approval requests within the areas of your responsibility can only be viewed by the Local HR role. For the requests you are responsible for, the **Approve/Reject** action will become available. Also, such requests can be approved or rejected in bulk by selecting several requests and clicking **Batch Action** > **Approve/Reject**. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/c315c68d-2799-4fcc-9a39-084315b58f14/Images/Documentation/img719.png)

Click **View Item** on an approval request to view details about it.

Click **Approval/Comments** **History** on an approval request to view the history of approvals as well as comments.

## Job Description Creation/Change Approval

In the **Approval Requests** window, in the Local HR role, you can also create or modify a job profile and get it approved. This process is based on a predefined job description approval workflow.

To create a request to edit or create a job description (job profile), click **Start Approval Process** > **Job Description**, and then [follow](/v1/docs/job-description-approval-1#JobDescriptionApprovalWorkflow) the same steps as in the Employee or HR role. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/c315c68d-2799-4fcc-9a39-084315b58f14/Images/Documentation/img720.png)

Under the **Start Approval Process** label, you can also start other approval processes (e.g. termination approval) if the corresponding button is available.

*Note**For which approval process a button will be available for the Employee role depends on the settings of the corresponding* [*approval process*](/v1/docs/approval-workflows)*.*

To fill in initial information about the created request to edit or create a job description (profile) and send it for approval, click **View Form** on the created job description approval workflow approval request.
