Additional Information:
- Only users with Manage Approval Routing permission can perform the steps listed.
- The Bill Amount Limit assigns an Approver an Approval threshold within their Approval Group. For example, if a Bill amount is $700 and the Bill Approver Amy has a Bill Amount Limit of $1000, it will be fully approved by Amy once she's Approved the Bill. No other Approver will need to review the Bill.
- Why are there both % and $ variance limits for Bill Approvers?
- To apply an unlimited Approval Threshold, enter 0.00 in the Approver Bill Amount Limit
