Approval Authority Register

A maintained record of which roles can approve particular decisions and within what limits.

Approval routes should use the authority in effect at the time of the request. A register helps process owners maintain those role and limit rules. It is useful when authority is documented in several places and changes or temporary delegations are not reflected consistently.

What it manages

Entries can hold decision type, role, financial threshold, delegation and effective dates. The register supports consistent routing and review. It differs from an approval engine because it records the authority rules; connected workflows may use those rules to send requests to the correct people.

03

How it works in a business

An authorised owner records the approved authority structure. A request can refer to it when selecting an approver. Changes, temporary delegation and expiry are recorded so staff can identify which rules applied when a decision was made.

04

What SFn can customise

SFn can configure authority categories, effective dates and restricted editing. Request or expense workflows may use the register. Conflicting rules, self-approval and expired delegation need tests, with the authority policy itself approved by the business.
