An approval restriction enables restriction of timecard approval if certain exceptions are not resolved. All exceptions identified in the approval restriction must be evaluated and approved in order for the manager to approve the timecard. When exceptions are marked as reviewed or no longer exist (for example, when a missed punch is fixed or an unexcused absence is resolved), then they are considered resolved.
