Define condition-based rules, with each rule containing multiple levels of approval.\n\n**Note:** Use the Approval rules module to configure approval rules for the exception management workflows. For information on configuring approval rules, see [Create approval levels for Exception Management in Configuration Compliance](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/security-management/configuration-compliance/cc-exception-mgt-config-approval-rule.md).\n\n## Procedure\n\n1.  Navigate to **All** &gt; **Configuration Compliance** &gt; **Administration** &gt; **Approval Rules**.\n\n2.  Select an approval rule and navigate to the **Approval Configurations** tab.\n\n3.  Select a configuration.\n\n4.  On the form, fill in the fields.\n\n    |Field|Description|\n    |-----|-----------|\n    |Name|Approval configuration name.|\n    |Approval rule|Contains the table and type details for the approval rule.|\n    |Order|Execution order of various configurations within a rule. For example, a configuration with an order entry of 100 is run before a configuration with an order entry of 200.|\n    |Active|Enabled by default, signifying that the approval configuration is in use.|\n    |Description|Short description of the approval configuration levels.|\n\n5.  Set a condition for the test results or remediation tasks in one of the following ways:\n\n<table id=\"table_q1y_hks_gbc\"><thead><tr><th>\n\nField\n\n</th><th>\n\nDescription\n\n</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>\n\nCondition\n\n</td><td>\n\nIdentifies the matching test results or remediation tasks.\n\n</td></tr><tr><td>\n\nAdvanced condition\n\n</td><td>\n\nScript that defines the condition for the test results or remediation tasks.**Note:** This field appears when you select the **Advanced** check box.\n\n</td></tr></tbody>\n</table>6.  Select **Update**.\n\n    You can define conditions containing multiple levels of approval within a rule. The flow designer automatically inherits the rules created in this module and processes the matching approval workflow. For information on configuring approval levels, see [Create approval levels for Exception Management in Configuration Compliance](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/security-management/configuration-compliance/cc-exception-mgt-config-approval-rule.md).\n\n\n## Example\n\nYou can define different approval paths for different types of remediation tasks.\n\n"}}
