Approvals: who can post a document?
Approval policy determines who can post a document meeting an amount threshold. Permission to create does not imply permission to approve.

Before you start
Select the correct company and verify permissions. Learn in a test workspace; posting or restoring can change actual data.
Workflow
- Open Approvals and choose the document type to control.
- Choose approval mode, amount threshold and delegated role where required.
- Save and test documents below and above the threshold with a restricted account.
- Review the rejection message and have the delegated role post; do not assign owner access to everyone.
Watch this distinction
These are posting controls, not evidence of a multi-stage approval workflow for every document.

Reopen the record and check saved values and state. For financial operations, compare the document with the relevant movement and report before continuing.
