Unlocking the Power of Approval Workflows in Procurement
Create clear rules and instructions by allowing key authorities to always be on top of requests with the Approval App which will allow your company to speed up the decision-making process. As organizations grow and evolve, their complexity increases. The procurement processes become more untransparent however simultaneously, they require a faster decision-making process. This demands an easy-to-use tool that can be integrated into existing streams to accelerate approval flows that can support making the procurement process less complicated and enable finance and procurement to gain control and visibility.
The approval app can mirror your current internal approval matrix or can help you improve the process by reducing unnecessary steps. Either use a line manager matrix and proceed up the manager chain of command of the user step by step until a user with an appropriate approval limit approves the document. Or use a cost object approval flow where the task is routed to the owner of the cost center and/or GL code and/or project code. Now decide whether only one team needs to approve or all of the assigned teams need to vote. Last, define the sequence of approval votes – the app gives each company flexibility to design their required approval flow.
With the matching approval workflow, customized rules can be set up which allows you to automate more of your workflow and approvals to thus decrease the amount of manual touches. This makes your process less error-prone and gives each member the possibility to track back messages, documents, and actions in the audit trail – digitalize the chain to gain ultimate transparency and visibility.

Who can use the Approval App?
There are multiple ways to use the Approvals App. With the Q-Card integration, each requestor can make use of the approval app without even knowing it! They can for example create an expense request in the Q-Card app that will land in the approval app for the approval teams to review and vote. Equal to the integration with the Service Collaboration App, the approver is defined based on the configured Cost Center/General Ledger Code/Project Code and the linked amount of the expense request or Service Entry Sheet. Or use the Approvals App in combination with the planner workbench: when the total amount of an order exceeds a limit, an approver can decide to release the order to the supplier or reject the order request.
