Provide all required information and your certificate request will appear with Approved status under Certificate Requests list. Click on Generate to create certificate, a dialog will appear with the title Certificate Generated. You can either generate new certificate request or can move to certificate requests list to view/download certificate from this dialog. You may also navigate to issued certificates list from same dialog by selecting certificates.
