Poppulo Feeds makes it easy to share timely updates and announcements with your employees. In some cases, you may want to ensure that posts are reviewed before they go live. The Submit for Approval feature allows you to route draft posts to an approver, helping you maintain consistency, accuracy, and compliance in your communications.
If supervisor approval is required prior to sending a new Feed Post, use the Submit for approval feature to initiate the approval process.
