ApprovalMax enables the setup of multi-step approval workflows for Purchase Orders. There are two ways to create Purchase Orders: directly in ApprovalMax, or in Xero.
This is how the approval of Purchase Orders created directly in ApprovalMax works:
Purchase Orders are created and submitted for approval in ApprovalMax
ApprovalMax starts the multi-step approval workflow as predefined for them in ApprovalMax
The respective managers get notified that their approval is required, and make their decision
When all approvals are in place, the Purchase Order is created in Xero as Authorised and moved to the Approved list
This is how the approval of Purchase Orders created in Xero works:
Purchase Orders are created and submitted for approval in Xero
ApprovalMax pulls these Purchase Orders including all relevant details and starts the multi-step approval workflow as predefined for them in ApprovalMax
The respective managers get notified that their approval is required, and make their decision
When all approvals are in place, the Purchase Order status is changed to Authorised in Xero and the Purchase Order is moved to the Approved list.
