Explanation
For a multi-entity organization like City Power and Light that needs controlled, consistent purchase approval processes, three configurations work together: Signing limits (B) define the maximum monetary value each position or role is authorized to approve, ensuring purchases above a threshold escalate to higher authority. Workflow (C) automates the routing and approval chain for purchase orders and requisitions based on rules like amount, department, or vendor. Purchasing policies (D) define the procurement rules (e.g., which catalogs to use, spending limits by category) that apply across or within legal entities. Procurement categories (A) classify spend but do not control approvals. Security roles (E) control system access but are not purchasing approval controls.
