What is Approval Matrix?

The Approval Matrix is a decision table that allows the user to define the roles of the Approvers. It is a major element of overall governance framework of a Procurement process. Configuring Approval Matrix is very much required in order to ensure that there is transparency, control and symphony in the Procurement cycle. You can configure an Approval Matrix so that the level-wise Approvers defined in the Approval Matrix can approve specific requests.

To configure an Approval Matrix:

  1. Select Procurement > Configuration > Approval Matrix. The APPROVAL MATRIX page is displayed.
  2. On the ACTIONS panel of the APPROVAL MATRIX page, click APPROVAL MATRIX.
  3. On the APPROVAL MATRIX page, fill in all the required information. For more information about the fields on the APPROVAL MATRIX page, see Field Description.
