-Bob has written a Resource Plan as part of the 2018 budgeting process.  He needs to have it approved by his manager, Sue.  Bob has saved the resource plan, which happens to be an Excel workbook, in an SME folder on S3 that Sue has shared with him.  He right-clicks on the file and selects the “Request approval” option.  In the dialog box that pops up he selects Sue as the approver, and writes her a quick note in the Comment area.  Then he clicks the “Request” button.
