ApprovalMax supports the 10-cent deviation rule during the auto-marking of Purchase Orders as Billed.
What does this mean exactly?
ApprovalMax supports the automatic marking of Purchase Order as Billed on the approval of the last Bill matched to this Purchase Order if the settings for the remaining Purchase Order balance specified in the Bill workflow are met.
Select your Organisation in the main menu and go to Approval workflows under Workflows and settings:
Open the Bill workflow:
Click on the Gear iconthen go to the Matching section. Scroll down to Purchase Order Matching and activate your preferred option for "Can a Bill be approved if the Purchase Order remaining balance of any matched Purchase Order is below zero":
If the option "Can a Bill be approved if the Purchase Order remaining balance of any matched Purchase Order is below zero" is set to "Yes, such Bills can be approved", Purchase Orders will be auto-marked as Billed if the Purchase Order's remaining balance is below 10 cents.
If the option "Can a Bill be approved if the Purchase Order remaining balance of any matched Purchase Order is below zero" is set to "Yes, such Bills can be approved if the Purchase Order's remaining balance is no more than X per cent below zero", Purchase Orders should get auto-marked as Billed if the Purchase Order's remaining balance is between -(X%+10 cents) and 10 cents.
For example: if the Purchase Order amount is 100 AUD and the setting is 15%, it means a Bill can be approved if the Purchase Order's remaining balance is between -15,10 and 0,10.
If the option "Can a Bill be approved if the Purchase Order remaining balance of any matched Purchase Order is below zero" is set to "Such Bills can be approved if the Purchase Order's remaining balance is no more than N below zero", the Purchase Order should be auto-marked as Billed if its Purchase Order's remaining balance is between -(N+10 cents) and 10 cents.
For example: if the Purchase Order amount is 10000 AUD and the setting is 1000 AUD, the sum of all matched Bills should be no more than 11000 AUD, i.e. the Purchase Order's remaining balance is between -1000,10 and 0,10.
If the option "Can a Bill be approved if the Purchase Order remaining balance of any matched Purchase Order is below zero" is set to "No, such Bills cannot be approved", the Purchase Order should be auto-marked as Billed if its remaining balance is between -10 cents and 10 cents.
