Requiring shoutouts to be approved before they are sent can ensure that recognition aligns with your company’s values, tone, and guidelines. This feature is perfect for larger organizations or teams where you want to review the content being shared.
Steps to Require Shoutouts to Be Approved:
1. Log in to your Guusto Admin Dashboard.
2. Navigate to the Settings tab located on the left-hand sidebar.
3. Proceed to Shoutouts tab
4. Under the Shoutout Settings section, find the "Require Shoutouts to Be Approved" option.
5. Toggle the setting to "On" to enable approval requirements for all shoutouts.
What Happens After Enabling Approval?
Once enabled, shoutouts submitted by team members will be sent to the designated approvers for review. The approver will receive an email notification and can either:
Approve the shoutout to send it to the recipient.
Reject the shoutout and request edits.
To approve or change the status of a shoutout, team admins can go to Manage Shoutouts > Shoutouts. Admins can easily change the status of any shoutout using the Actions button.

This feature is available for all Guusto accounts with admin access. If you don’t see the option, check your plan details or contact support.
