If an action requires an attachment from the confirming user, you'll need to [upload a file](/v1/docs/uploading-an-actions-file#uploading-an-actions-file). - A learner attachment is not required to confirm an action. - If you'd prefer to review each action individually, refer to the [Reviewing, Confirming, and Rejecting Actions page](/v1/docs/reviewing-confirming-and-rejecting-actions). To confirm multiple actions at once: 1. From the Admin menu, select **User Admin**. 2. Select **Action Approval**. The [Action Approval workscreen](/v1/docs/action-approval-workscreen) displays. You can filter the grid to only show pending actions by clicking Pending. 1. Click the ![Plus](https://cdn.document360.io/7efaadab-fef6-4186-806a-2ca14c9ce9ea/Images/Documentation/confirming-multiple-actions-image-ottnn5yu.png) beside each action you want to approve. You can also click Select All to select all rows in the grid. The selected rows will be shaded. ![Selecting Actions](https://cdn.document360.io/7efaadab-fef6-4186-806a-2ca14c9ce9ea/Images/Documentation/confirming-multiple-actions-image-b0gjavdn.png) If a learner is assigned the same action for different certifications, selecting one of those actions selects the other instances of that action for the other certifications. 1. Click **Confirm Selection**. This button is located below the grid. ![Confirm Selection Button](https://cdn.document360.io/7efaadab-fef6-4186-806a-2ca14c9ce9ea/Images/Documentation/confirming-multiple-actions-image-vqq1w31h.png) 1.

Click in the **Accepted Date** field and select the date. 2. For [actions that expire](/v1/docs/action-expiration#expires), the Expiration Date will be calculated based on the Accepted Date and how long the action is valid. If you instead want the selected actions to expire on the same date, check the **Override Expiration Date** checkbox and select the new expiration date. The expiration date only applies to [actions that expire](/v1/docs/action-expiration#expires). 1. If needed, complete the following accordions: - [Training Cost](/v1/docs/confirming-multiple-actions#training-cost) - This accordion is only applicable if your [account's **Training Cost Tracking** setting](/v1/docs/account-settings#training-cost-tracking) is checked, and you're an administrator or have the [Edit Wages & Training Costs account permission](/v1/docs/account-permission-edit-wages-training-costs). - [Notes](/v1/docs/confirming-multiple-actions#notes) 1.
