# Mark Invoices Approved without an Approver

## This article reviews how an AP manager can mark invoices as approved without an invoice approver.

**Payables Permissions:** Upload, process, and code documents

 

In the event that an AP manager needs an invoice approved, they can use the Mark approved functionality which will show in the audit trail of the invoice.

To mark an invoice as approved, please follow these steps and navigate to the 'Mark Approved' action in the 'Documents' tab. Invoices with the status ‘Ready for approval’, ’Awaiting approval’, and ‘Need Approvers’ will be filtered in the list.

 

Select the desired invoices to approve and click on the Confirm button. The status of these invoices will be approved and will move over to the 'Post' action for posting.
