❓ What Does “Approval Level” Mean?
Approval Level determines the sequence and structure of approval.
? Sequential Approval (Different Levels)
| Level | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 1 | First approver |
| 2 | Second approver (after Level 1 approves) |
| 3 | Third approver (after Level 2 approves) |
-
If Level 1 rejects → request is rejected immediately.
-
Level 2 will only receive the request after Level 1 approves.
? Parallel Approval (Same Level)
You can assign multiple approvers at the same level.
If multiple approvers are set at the same level number:
-
Only one of them needs to approve for the request to proceed.
-
If any one of them rejects, the request will be rejected.
Example:
| Approver | Level |
|---|---|
| Manager A | 1 |
| Manager B | 1 |
Either Manager A or Manager B can approve the request.
⚠️ Special Notes
1️⃣ Movement Auto-Approval Rule
-
If no approver is assigned for Movement, the system will automatically approve the movement request.
-
If you want movement requests to go through approval, you must assign at least one approver.
2️⃣ Important Rule About Approver Timing
-
Approvers must be configured before the staff submits the application (e.g., leave application).
-
If an approver is assigned after the application has already been submitted:
-
The configured approver will not be able to approve that existing application.
-
Only a user with Admin access can approve the application.
-
✅ Best Practice: Always ensure approvers are properly configured before staff start submitting applications.
