Automates multi-stage approval workflows with routing, escalation, and compliance.
Routes items through approval stages: resolving who must approve, notifying them, escalating on delay, and recording the outcome. Workflow with a control obligation attached.
Any process where authorisation is a control — journal entries, write-offs, configuration changes, expenditure.
Nowhere, where approval is required. The question is how it is implemented, not whether.
Routing rules must be tenant configuration, versioned and approved. Preparer and approver separation must be enforced structurally, not checked in application logic that a future path could bypass.
Delegation chains that circumvent the control's intent — cover for an absent approver that quietly routes to someone the rule was written to exclude.
Value-band routing where an entry above a threshold needs the entity controller, and any manual non-standard entry needs the group controller regardless of size.
