Delete Events Awaiting Approval

To delete an event that is currently awaiting approval in Gatekeeper, it must first be either approved or rejected by the approver.

Administrators can override this by transferring ownership to themselves, but this should only be done if the event no longer requires valid approval.

To do this: 

  1. From the navigation menu, expand Configuration, then click Users.
  2. Search for the user that is assigned as the approver for the event and click on their name.
  3. In the Ownership section, click Reassign in the Approver row of the Events table.
