Add Expense Authorized Approver or Cost Object Approvers

Expense Authorized Approver

If a company uses the authorized approver feature in Expense, based on the company's configuration, the company will see one of these methods - never both.

  • Authorized Approver check box

    When you select the check box, the Manager Approval Limit field and the Approval Limit Currency list appear. Make the appropriate choices and click Save.

  • Authorized Approval Limits link

    When you click the link, the Authorized Approval Limits window appears.

    On the left side, select the appropriate level in the hierarchy.

    On the right side:

    • For exception-based approvers, select (enable) the Can approve exception check box. (The actual exception levels are defined on the Authorized Approvers tab in Workflows.)

    • For limit-based approvers, select the desired currency and enter the amount.

    • If an approver has both types of approval authority, define both.

Expense Cost Object Approvers

If the Cost Object Approver feature is activated, the Authorized Approval Limits link appears.

When you click the link, the Authorized Approval Limits window appears.

On the left side, select the appropriate level in the hierarchy.

On the right side:

  • For limit-based cost object approval, select a currency and enter an amount.

  • For level-based cost object approval, enter a level.
