The authorisation option provides a facility for senior users or a departmental RPS to authorise individual requests for compounds.

The Authorisation screen displays a table of requests and provides a number of options.

The table provides information on requests:

Compound	the name/details of the compound
Activity	the activity required

Reference	the unique reference for the compound
Authorisation code	the authorisation code
Order number	the unique order reference number
Requested by	the user that requested the compound

A drop-down is provided for selecting which data is displayed:

Waiting authorisation	all requests requiring authorisation
Authorised	all requests that have been authorised
Refused authorisation	all requests where the authorisation was refused
All	all requests

The lower part of the screen shows detailed information about any highlighted request.
