How to Approve a Saving Account Application
Once a saving account application whether it is for a client, a group, or a center has been submitted, it is ready to be approved (the saving account status is Pending Approval and the saving account color is gold).
Saving account applications can be approved by Mifos users with saving account approval permissions.
Approving a saving account application changes the status of the saving account from Pending Approval to Approved.
