How to Use Design Approval

Updated yesterday

Once your admin sets up design approval, the user to whom email notifications are assigned will be notified when a design approval is necessary.

In the AI-Assisted design tool, sales reps can switch between several modes: Default, NREL (Assisted Design) and NREL (Manual Design). If a sales rep switches to any other design mode that is not Default, the design must be reviewed before the proposal can be financed.

Submitting an AI-Assisted Design for Approval

When designing with the AI-Assisted design tool, sales reps will need approval for design if they select NREL (Assisted Design) or NREL (Manual Design) modes from the “Mode” dropdown.


​Once the design is complete, click “Save”.

After saving, a message will appear at the top of the page indicating that the design is pending approval.
