This activity is used to automatically assign approvers/approver groups when the voucher is saved in the Awaiting Approval status. Approvers/approver groups will be added to the voucher approval tab in the Voucher page.
The automatic assignment will be done by filtering based on the amount criterion and the voucher type specified in the assigning rule. If the voucher approval should be done by two approvers, Two Approvers Required option should be selected. When two approvers are selected it is possible to select whether the approval should be done in a chronological order by selecting Sequential Approval option.
There are three status values for approver assigning rule. When the rule is created and saved, it will have the In Progress status. The rules will be in effect when the rule is set to the Active status. Approver rules that are no longer used will have the Obsolete status, and will not be used in the system.
In order to perform this activity, approvers/approver groups should be defined in the Voucher Approvers page.
As a result of this activity, an approver assigning rule will be created, and will automatically assign approvers/approver groups for voucher approval.
