  • Regular Approval - The user is given order limits for various order functions. For example, a user may have a 'Requisition Limit' of $999999.00, and an 'Order Limit' of $200.00. This user can submit orders up to $200 in value without approval, but any orders $200.01 - $999,999.00 will require approval. Users on the same Customer Code with an 'Approval Limit' greater than the order value will be able to approve the order. If there isn't a user with an appropriate approval limit for the order, an error message will be displayed to the User: 'Order cannot be submitted as there is no approver with the correct approval limit authority.'
  • Single Person User Selected - This allows the user to choose an approver from a list of valid approvers. This uses the same logic as 'Regular Approval'.
  • Multi Person User Selected - This allows the user to choose multiple approvers from a list of valid approvers. This uses the same logic as 'Regular Approval'. Only one of the selected approvers needs to approve the order.
  • Single Person Auto Selected - This functionality is the same as for 'Regular Approval'.
  • Multi Person Auto Selected - This will automatically select all available approvers to approve the order. All of the selected approvers need to approve the order.
  • Multi Person Auto Single - This will automatically select all available approvers to approve the order. Only one of the selected approvers needs to approve the order.
  • Multi Person Auto Selected No Group - This will automatically select all available approvers to approve the order. ALL of the selected approvers need to approve the order.
  • Hierarchical - This will allow a hierarchical list of approvers to approve an order. All of the approvers need to approve the order.
  • Hierarchical Customer Budget - This will allow a hierarchical list of approvers to approve an order. All orders are submitted for approval (even if the order is placed by a user in the approval group).
  • Hierarchical Approval Limits - This will allow a hierarchical list of approvers to approve an order; minimum and maximum order amounts are set up on each user in the approval group. Approvers are skipped if their range doesn't include the order amount.
