Proposed Invoices - Authorisation

This article is part of the Proposed Invoices section.
If you do not see the Accept Invoice button when accepting an invoice, this means you you will need to request authorisation.

Switching off the "Proposed Invoices Require Authorisation" System Setting will allow all users to post proposed invoices without requesting authorisation.
Requesting Authorisation
- Click Request Authorisation in the bottom action bar.

- This will send an email to your supervisor.

- The invoice will be marked as Awaiting Authorisation in the main Proposed Invoices grid.

Granting Authorisation for your staff
Once authorisation has been requested, the supervisor needs to follow the below steps to grant authorisation:

Users will need the "Authorise All Proposed Invoices" permission to grant authorisation for other staff.
- Navigate to the Proposed Invoices tab and click Invoices to Authorise.

- This will refresh the grid to show all invoices awaiting authorisation.
- Highlight the invoice on the grid, and click Authorise in the bottom action bar.

- This will open the Proposed Invoice screen and send an authorisation granted email to the user who requested it.

- The invoice will now have authorisation details against it in the main grid.

- The original user can now go in and accept the invoice following the normal process.
Granting Authorisation for yourself

Users with the "Authorise Own Proposed Invoices" permission can authorise their own invoices.
To do this:
- Once you have requested authorisation, return to the main Proposed Invoices grid and double-click, or click Amend, to open the invoice.
- Click Grant Authorisation in the bottom action bar.
- This will open the Accept Proposed Invoice screen. Follow the normal process to accept the invoice.
