Thank you for confirming that SmartPass doesn’t currently support approval requirements for teacher-created passes. I’d like to formally request that this feature be added to your product roadmap.
This capability would be very helpful for departments like Guidance, Counseling, and the Nurse’s Office, where visits often need pre-approval before a student leaves class, but teachers still need to initiate passes when students can’t do so themselves.
Right now, automatic activation of teacher-created passes makes it difficult for destination staff to manage workflow and maintain student accountability. Allowing all passes to a restricted destination—regardless of who creates them—to require approval would make SmartPass far more flexible and aligned with school supervision needs.
