Hi All-

The employee is not able to update the rest of their information in ESS.  When I go to the transaction console all transactions show a green check mark and their are no transactions that appear to be in error.  However, when I look at the HR record in the Person screen I see that there is a message on the screen Warning:  Approvals are in progress. Info is locked.  

We do not have approvals set up for any of our HR transactions and we have fyi notifications set up for ESS changes.  I will attach an image of the two screens discussed.
