Which action should be performed on an award notification prior to approval?

• A. Click the Check Eligibility button to verify minimum requirements
• B. Approve immediately
• C. Notify the member
• D. Archive the notification

Answer: (A)

Before approving an award notification, you need to confirm that the recipient meets the defined eligibility criteria. The way to do this is to click the Check Eligibility button to verify minimum requirements. This step catches any missing or out‑of‑scope criteria and helps ensure the award is appropriate and compliant before it’s approved. Approving immediately skips this validation, which can lead to errors. Notifying the member is typically done after approval, and archiving is a later records task, not a pre‑approval action.
