Bill Amount Limit

Bill Amount Limit functions similarly to thresholds in Approval Routing for order requests. If the bill's total cost exceeds the approver's Bill Amount Limit, it will still require further review if there are higher levels of approvers within the approval group. Here's an example:

  • Amy has a Bill Amount Limit of $1000. A bill amounting to $700 approved by Amy will be fully approved as it is within her Bill Amount Limit. No other Approver will need to review the Bill.

Enter a Bill Amount Limit of 0 if you do not wish to utilize Bill Amounts Limits.

  • Jordan has a Bill Amount Limit is $0. Any Bill approved by Jordan will require the approval of higher-level approvers if they exist.

Item Variance Limits

You can set:

  • item variance percentage limit (from 0-100%)

  • an item variance limit ($ amount),

  • or both.

If both are set, and either variance is triggered, the bill will require the approval of a higher-level approver if they exist. Here's an example:

  • Amy has Variance limits of both 10% and $50. She adjusts a bill of $100 to $140. While it is within her Bill Amount Limit, it surpasses the variance percentage limit. This bill will require the approval of a higher-level approver if they exist.

Additional Information:

  • Approval Routings for bills must be added in-app. There is no import function available.
