Personal View
Any user (other than the global admin) with access to the approval path will have access to Personal View.
A user with admin permissions will have broader access to Approval Path’s features.

Global Admins have additional options. Through the permissions scheme, they can add groups of users who can Manage Approvals in a space, add new approval Definition, and edit existing Definition.
