PO Approvals

The final step: authorize the PO, then issue it.

A Purchase Order is the commitment made after a supplier is chosen. Most arrive here automatically from an awarded RFQ in Requisitions; you can also enter a direct PO below. Each is routed to the right approvers by amount, and every step is recorded.

POs normally flow in from an awarded RFQ. Start a need in Requisitions to source it properly first.Go to Requisitions

Enter a direct PO (fallback)

For POs raised outside the RFQ flow — e.g. a contracted/catalog buy. Paste the PO text; in production you can drop a PDF or Excel file instead.

Format each line as description | qty | unit price.

How auto-routing works
  1. 1
    Extract

    Vendor, cost center, line items and total amount are read from the PO automatically.

  2. 2
    Validate & flag

    Each line is matched to its part. Prices above the historical average get an anomaly flag.

  3. 3
    Route

    The amount is checked against the approval rules — only the required approvers are added, in order.

  4. 4
    Act & audit

    Approvers approve or reject in-app. Every action is timestamped in an audit trail.
