Category I Watchlist


This article explains the purpose of the Category I Watchlist and how to add individuals to the watchlist.


The Category I Watchlist allows Reviewers and Approvers to designate individuals to receive a carbon copy (CC) of the final decision email sent to faculty when a Category I form is approved/accepted or denied. Once the form reaches a final decision, all individuals listed on the Category I Watchlist will automatically receive a copy of the notification email.

Note: The Watchlist option is visible only to staff assigned the Category I Watchlist role. Contact your campus App Admin to request this role.
