Purchase Approval Rules

The Purchase Approval Rules module enables structured approval of purchase orders through a predefined workflow involving multiple stakeholders.

The first step in setting up purchase approval in Odoo is to create Approval Roles. Navigate to Purchase > Configuration > Approval Roles and define the roles according to your organization's hierarchy. Each role represents a level of responsibility for approving purchase orders. For example, you can create roles such as Manager, Department Head, or Finance Officer. Assigning these roles ensures that each employee involved in the purchase process has clearly defined authority levels.

Once roles are created, the next step is to define Approval Categories. Navigate to Purchase > Configuration > Approval Categories and create categories to classify purchase orders. Each category can represent different types of purchases, such as office supplies, capital expenditures, or high-value items. Linking categories to roles and approval rules ensures that the approval process is tailored according to the type and value of the purchase, providing better control and organization.

After creating roles and categories, you need to configure Approval Rules to define the workflow logic. Navigate to Purchase > Configuration > Approval Rules and create new rules for different purchase scenarios. Set Price Lower and Upper Limits to specify which role can approve purchases within certain value ranges. Use -1 as the upper limit to indicate unlimited approval authority. Each rule should be linked to an appropriate Approval Category, ensuring that the workflow automatically follows the correct sequence based on the product type and amount.

After setting up roles and rules, assign approval responsibilities to employees. Navigate to Employees > Employees, select the employee whose approval role you want to define, and open their detailed profile.

When an approver chooses to reject a purchase order, a popup appears requesting the reason for rejection. This step is essential to provide transparency and accountability. The rejection reason is recorded in the system and visible in the approval history, ensuring that all stakeholders understand why the request was rejected.

Employees who are not assigned to the approval category of a product will not see the Approve PO or Reject PO or Send For Approval buttons. This ensures that only authorized personnel can take approval actions, preventing unauthorized approvals and maintaining strict adherence to the organization's approval policies.

From the admin perspective, it is crucial to track the approval progress of purchase requests. Navigate to the request for quotation (RFQ) and open the Approval Hierarchy page. Here, admins can view which users have approved or rejected each request, including the sequence order. This provides transparency and helps monitor workflow compliance.
