Approval Flows

Structured process for reviewing and authorizing purchases

Ensure oversight and alignment with business goals by routing requests to the right people at the right time, these workflows enhance control, efficiency, and transparency.

Streamlined Decision-Making:
Automated approval flows route requests—such as requisitions or purchase orders—to designated approvers instantly, reducing delays and keeping procurement moving forward without manual follow-ups.

Enhanced Control:
Define who can approve what based on factors like amount, department, or item type. This ensures only authorized personnel greenlight transactions, maintaining oversight over spending.

Improved Accountability:
Every approval is logged with timestamps and user details, creating a clear record of who authorized each step. This transparency holds individuals accountable and simplifies tracking.

Faster Processing Times:
Pre-set workflows eliminate bottlenecks by notifying approvers in real time and escalating unanswered requests. Mobile access allows approvals on the go, cutting wait times significantly.

Policy Compliance:
Embed company rules—like spending limits, vendor preferences, or regulatory requirements—into the workflow. This ensures every transaction adheres to standards without manual intervention.

Reduced Errors:
Automated routing prevents requests from being overlooked or sent to the wrong person. Built-in validations (e.g., incomplete forms) catch issues early, minimizing rework.

Customizable Workflows:
Tailor approval paths to your organization’s needs—whether a single approver for small purchases or multi-tiered sign-offs for major contracts. This flexibility adapts to varying complexity.

Better Transparency:
Stakeholders gain visibility into the status of requests—pending, approved, or rejected—in real time. Dashboards or notifications keep everyone informed, reducing confusion.

Fraud Prevention:
Requiring approvals from multiple levels for sensitive transactions (e.g., high-value POs) reduces the risk of unauthorized or fraudulent purchases by distributing responsibility.
