Creating Approval Templates 
As an authorizer you can create several approval templates that specify the various approval procedures for the company, to which users the approval procedures apply, and to which transactions.
For example, approval procedures can be defined with different terms for different originators. An approval procedure can be triggered for the credit limit for some originators of invoices, and an approval procedure for the gross profit and the credit limit for other originators.
For example, a template can be defined so that all purchase orders created by a certain originator that have a value greater than EUR 1,000.00 must be run through the approval procedure.

Two tables are displayed:
The upper table contains predefined conditions that you can select.
The Choose column lets you apply one or more tests using the predefined variables.
The Term column contains the list of predefined variables.
The Ratio column contains a list of predefined mathematical operators to compare to the selected variable.
In the Value column, enter the threshold amount. If the term is compared to this amount using the selected ratio and the comparison holds true, then the approval procedure is triggered.
The lower table contains saved queries that you can execute.
If the result of a saved query is True, then the approval procedure is triggered.
NoteAn approval procedure can be contingent upon both multiple predefined variable comparisons and multiple saved queries. A total for the number of selected conditions is displayed at the bottom of the window.
