Workflow

Multi-entity approval routing

Applying group policy across entities without flattening each entity's own delegation matrix.

Part of Accounting

The problem

Every entity has its own thresholds, its own approvers and its own chart of accounts, usually for good local reasons. Group finance needs one consistent control over all of them. The usual compromises are to flatten local rules into a single group matrix that fits nobody, or to leave each entity to itself and audit by sampling. Neither gives you a control you can rely on across the group.

How VapusFin handles it

  1. 01

    Each entity keeps its own delegation matrix, thresholds, account mappings and local approvers, configured as rules rather than as convention.

  2. 02

    Group-level policies are applied above them and cannot be locally disabled, so a group control is genuinely in force on every entity.

  3. 03

    A transaction is routed by amount, GL code, department, entity and exception type, so it reaches the person who is actually authorised to decide it under both sets of rules.

  4. 04

    Where a local rule and a group policy conflict, the group policy holds and the conflict is reported rather than silently resolved.
