Updated August 16, 2023: We have updated the rollout timeline below. Thank you for your patience.
We are introducing two new list templates with the Approvals app integration. With this change, Microsoft Lists templates, specifically Travel Requests with approvals and Content Scheduler with approvals, will begin to leverage integration with the Approvals app in Microsoft Teams.
This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 100502
[When this will happen:]
Targeted Release: We will begin rolling out in early March 2023 and expect to complete rollout by late March 2023.
Standard Release: We will begin rolling out in mid-July 2023 (previously late June) and expect to complete rollout by late August 2023 (previously early August).
[How this will affect your organization:]
In a new list created using either of these two templates, users can create a list item and submit it for approval by creating an approval request and specifying the approver, the request will appear in the Approvals app in Teams or can be approved directly within the list. Once approved, the list item status is updated.
The new list templates will automatically appear on the Create list from the template screen. This is an optional feature that users can leverage by using one of the two new list templates.
[What you need to do to prepare:]
No action is required by admins to enable this.
