Not being able to see 'awaiting approval' bills on the Dashboard is bizarre - so much so I thought it would be a setting that needed to be 'turned on'.
As the panel is supposed to "show a summary of the bills you need to pay, and when you need to pay them", not having the 'awaiting approval' bills showing is counter to what it's supposed to do.

Knowing bills are ready to approve is valuable information to our business - in which case we expect to be able to view it on the Dashboard.

re Purpose, as above: -
More than "saving users' time . . ", presence on the Dashboard alerts busy managers that approval action is required in their department.. E.G. "Inv-333333 (MG) alerts MG that follow up is needed. In our particular operation this is more than important. Thank you

If the dashboard is to be the "go to" place for all important functions then this feature should appear there.

Xero File with Multiple Users:
Those entering bills are often not those responsible for approving bills.
The Dashboard should alert all users to "action required", in this case various section managers - the current Bills To Pay screen is deficient in this regard. This is especially so where bills are received centrally. For efficiency and timely operation, I regard this idea as closer to Critical more so than Important. Michael G

On the Dasnboard under Bill's it shows all the bill tabs except "awaiting approval" this needs to be on the list. At a quick glance it looks like everything is under control but once you go into drafts or awaiting payment suddenly you discover bills awaiting approval

It would be really useful to add this to the dashboard.
My client keeps thinking he has more money available than he has.
The report for this is not very helpful as it has duplicate lines that have to be removed before sending to client.

Currently, an email has to be sent to the person who does the final check and approves bills/invoices for payment/issue to let them know that the drafts have been checked and have been submitted for approval. Please add "Awaiting Approval" to the dashboard!

In the same vein - bills that are sitting in "Awaiting Approval" do not appear on the Aged Payables report - this can result in missed payments, especially when the person paying the bills relies on this report to pay creditors and doesn't go searching for any other bills that may be awaiting approval.

100% agree - for the dashboard to work properly, it needs to show ALL bills rather than a subsection. Awaiting approval has clearly been 'more vetted' (Kiwinglish) than a draft bill so this total needs to show at the front, particularly for management to view. We bookkeepers already know how to look behind the scenes and find the detail.

So important for the dashboard to show complete and accurate data and also make it easy for approvers to access bills and invoices awaiting approval. So frustrating that it is still not done!!

Can this please be implemented ASAP, it is absurd that the dashboard functions this way without showing all the bills/invoices.
I view this as a bug or defect rather than a feature to be implemented.

The purpose of 100% visibility dies if partial data is missing. It is critical to see all the invoices status and sum the balance (Awaiting Approval is Critical and information is incomplete)

Ability to see all invoices awaiting approval on dashboard. (both customer and supplier).

Very Critical.

Not all XERO user really knows how to use XERO, higher level such as boss, directors, they don't even bother to find out how to approve bill :p

Hope by looking at dashboard, they just simply click and approve. :)
