# Jira Service Management Approvals for Products in Service Catalog Portfolios
<a name="jsd-product-approvals"></a>

The AWS Service Management Connector for Jira Service Management enables administrators to configure approvals for products at the portfolio level. All products in a portfolio that contain approval permissions require approval, so AWS and Jira administrators might need to collaborate on the Service Catalog portfolio structure.

**To configure the approval process**

1. Choose **AWS Accounts**.

1. Choose **Manage** on the AWS account for which you want to configure portfolio approvals.

1. In the **Permission to approve** column, choose **Add groups** for the portfolios that require product approvals.

1. Select **Require approval for provisioning**.

1. Under **Permission to approve**, choose **Add group**.

1. Choose **Save**.

**Note**  
If a portfolio only has a group associated with **Permissions to request**, products in the portfolio immediately provision when you submit the product request.
