Info

Notification for pending field level authorizations are displayed as an exception on the Security Summary screen within the Reference Desk.  Once you highlight a particular security in the Security pane, the Exception pane lists the pending authorization with the error message ‘Authorization displaying Authorization Required ' along with the field name and date.

...

When a user manually overrides a history record of a field (for which authorization is enabled), a pending authorization is generated for that field, for that security, and for the selected effective date. In addition, the system sets the release level of that security to incomplete. It is important to note that the security release level is updated (to incomplete status level) only if the most recent history record is edited. If a non-recent history record is updated, a pending authorization is generated for that effective date but the security's release level is not changed. The reason for this is because the release level is always based on the most current definition of a security's history (most recent history date). If the security is already fully released (or ‘Complete’ Complete), it indicates that the most recent history is free of exceptions and pending authorizations. Therefore, only an override to the most recent history record creates a pending override and resets the security's release level to incomplete  whereas overrides to a non-recent history record only generate a pending authorization for that date.
