How are Purchase Requisitions routed to the approvers in GFEBS?

In GFEBS, Purchase Requisitions are routed to approvers automatically based on a defined release strategy. This process is designed to streamline the procurement workflow and ensure that requisitions are reviewed in accordance with established organizational policies and thresholds.

The release strategy is a set of predetermined rules that determine which approvers need to review and approve a requisition based on factors such as the dollar amount, type of goods or services being procured, and other criteria set by the organization. This system facilitates efficiency and accountability in the requisition process, allowing multiple levels of approval if necessary, depending on the complexity and cost involved.

By using an automated system for routing, GFEBS reduces the likelihood of delays or errors that could occur with manual routing or email requests. This structure also enhances transparency, as each requisition can be tracked through the approval process, providing visibility into its status for all participants in the procurement chain.
