Prerequisites
Users who join in claim payment approvals are required to have “Approval payments” permission and approval limits configured in Limit Groups.
...
Once a payment is saved successfully, system will initialize the random approver selection process. The user is selected randomly by system as an approver based on:
The user has“Approve payments” permission. (Must have)
The user has a suitable Approval Limit on a specific product which is obtained from Claim Settings - Limit group. (Must have)
The user is in the same organization as the user who creates the payment. (Must have)
If more than one user satisfies all the above criteria, select the user who has the least number of currently assigned payments pending for approval.
If more than one user satisfies all the above criteria, select the user who has the nearest higher approval limit, compared to the payment transaction amount.
If more than one user satisfies all the above criteria, select randomly.
Notes: system won’t evaluate users in the parent organization if cannot find any user in the same organization as the user who creates the payment (point 1.d).
If no qualified approvers are selected for a transaction, "To be approved by" column in Pending Payments list will show "N/A" and Action column will have a Reassign button. Reassign action will initialize the approver selection process in point 1 above.
If a user has roles that have been added to several limit groups, the user will get the highest limit.
If the approval assignment is done successfully, a toast message will pop up “Payment <ref. no.> has been assigned to <user name> for approval.”
If the approval assignment is failed, a toast message will pop up “Cannot find the approver for Payment <ref. no.>.”
