Submit in Session Manager:
- Select the session to be submitted.
- Click the Submit Session button.
- Select an Approval Officer from the pull-down menu and click OK.

- The session is moved to the selected user's queue and assigned a Pending Approval status (see Figure 2). If you have the My Sessions filter selected, the session may no longer be visible. To view it, select the All Sessions filter or the User/Status Sessions filter and select the user to which it is assigned. Note that the session will be locked because it is now owned by the Approval officer.
