What conditions exist in the approval policies?

Modified on Thu, Jan 30, 2020 at 1:22 AM

There are multiple conditions that you may want to utilize within your Approval policies that will keep an invoice in Pending Approval until the proper User approves them. There conditions include:

Vendor	Specify one vendor and all invoices from that vendor will get held in Pending Approval.
Accounting Vendor ID	Specify the Accounting Vendor ID that vendors are mapped to (ex. Sysco).
Min. Total	Specify a number and all invoices with invoice_total above that minimum threshold will be held in Pending Approval.
Max. Total	Specify a number and all invoices with invoice_total below that maximum threshold will be held in Pending Approval.
Department	Specify one Department and all invoices from that Department will be held in Pending Approval.
GL Account	Specify one GL Account and all invoices from that GL will be held in Pending Approval.
GL Name Contains	Specify a string (ex. Food).
GL Name Does Not Contain	Specify a string (ex. Fixed Assets).
GL Number Contains	Specify a string (ex. 5400).
GL Number Does Not Contain	Specify a string (ex. 73350).
Received directly from Vendor?	Specify a boolean, Yes or No. If yes, all invoices that are sent directly from a vendor (via EDI, FTP, or email) will get held in Pending Approval. If no, all invoices that are not sent directly from a vendor will get held in Pending Approval.
Has unmapped items?	Specify a boolean, Yes or No. If yes, all invoices that are contain unmapped items will get held in Pending Approval. If no, all invoices that do not have unmapped items will get held in Pending Approval.
Policy	Specify one or many existing approval polices, and all invoices that meet those policies will get held in Pending Approval. This is usually paired with a new condition. Also known as "Sequential Approvers" or "Hierarchal Approvers," which means: after one policy has been approved will this other policy get triggered. Consider this use case: As a CFO, I only want to be alerted that an invoice requires my approval after everyone else reporting to me has already approved the invoice.
