What is invoice authorization?

Invoice authorization is a permission that can be set for users and roles. This gives permission to authorize invoices for payment in the system and allows access to the Accounts Payable section of the system.

There are three options available for this permission:

1. 1. POs they have approved

This assigns the user permission to authorize invoices for payment for their home department. The user would not be able to authorize invoices created by any other user.

1. 2. All POs

This assigns the user permission to authorize all invoices in the system for payment. This includes invoices for all departments and for all companies set up in the system. It will also automatically assign authority to authorize invoices for any new departments added to the system.

1. 3. POs for department(s)

This assigns the user permission to authorize invoices for payment for the list of departments selected here. The user will not be able to authorize invoices for any department not selected in the list. The list of departments set here can be across companies if needed.
