Approvals

The right people approve, in the right order.

You tell Requestable your approval limits once. After that a £400 order and a £40,000 order go to different people automatically, and each approver sees only what is genuinely waiting for them.

Staff ask on a form that already knows your rules

They pick a supplier and a budget, add what they want to buy, and the form asks for exactly the evidence your policy requires at that value. Above your quote threshold, it asks for the quotes and will not accept the request without them.

A new requisition for £1,280 of digital thermometers: the form works out the VAT-inclusive total of £1,536 and approval Band B, and now asks whether the required quotes have been obtained.

Each approver in turn

An approver acts before it moves on to the next, and the request is approved only once every step is complete.

Approval progress on a requisition, the budget holder first and then the finance officer, with its history below: submitted by Rebecca Hall, sent to Meera Kulkarni for approval, and the quote attached.

Step 1 of 2 · Awaiting action

On a Phone

Approve from the email, wherever you are.

Most approvals start with an email. The approver opens it on their phone, reads the details, confirms the budget covers it and decides, without waiting to get back to a desk.

The details come first, and the decision at the foot of the page

Every decision is recorded with a name and a time

Also Included

The details that keep approvals moving.

Holidays Are Covered

Name a deputy for a fortnight and their approvals carry on. The record still shows who actually approved each one.

Committee Items Picked Out

Purchases your rules say must go to governors or trustees, or onto the contracts register, are flagged so nothing is missed at the next meeting.

No More Chasing

Approvers see what is waiting without being reminded, and you can see where anything has got to without asking anybody.

See It with Your Own Numbers

A demonstration is far more useful with your own schools, budgets and approval limits in front of you than with somebody else's. Send us an email, and we will set that up and walk you through it at a time that suits you.
