Approvals

Professional plan and above. Make chosen documents wait for an approver before they count.

  1. Go to Settings › Business settings › Preferences › Approvals.
  2. Tick the documents that need approval, such as Sales orders, Purchase orders or Invoices.
  3. Optionally, enter an amount under From. Only documents above it need approval. Leave it empty for every one.
  4. Admins can always approve. Choose whether managers can approve too, then save.

Documents made by anyone who isn't an approver wait until an approver approves them. They get their number then. Staff can still raise them for approval.

Adjustments and transfers

Adjustments always need a manager. Staff transfers above the Approval for staff transfers above amount wait as drafts for a manager.
