Hi

Can you advise of the best ‘authorisation routing option’ when you want to have multiple persons authorising a PO?  Should this be set to ‘Include All Steps and Consider Limits’

 

For example, for a PO raised between £200k and £250k, I need to have 5 authorisations as follows.  All authorisers have various limits set up.  Can someone confirm that this will work in this order?

 

Thanks

Hi @DerekD,

If you have selected 'Include All Steps and Consider Limits' option, the system will copy all the steps in the Authorization routing template and validate the authorization limit of the last step while authorizing the purchase order. Here, the  authorization limit of the authorizer who is assigned to the last step in the routing template should have the highest value since the system validate the authorization limit of the last step while authorizing the purchase order. Until you completely authorize each authorization lines, you won't able to process the PO.

 

Therefore, I would also suggest 'Include All Steps and Consider Limits' as the best option for your business scenario.
