Govern who can commit capital and approve spend, enforced automatically in SAP S/4HANA

Strong corporate governance keeps complex enterprises compliant, transparent, and in control of every commitment. This solution digitizes and enforces the full delegation of authority process on SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP), routing budgetary and non-budgetary approvals automatically by role, spend category, and threshold. Position data comes from the HR mini-master in SAP S/4HANA, with a SOX-compliant audit trail on every approval.

Overview

Accelerate capital approvals and shorten decision cycles

Customers approve capital requests faster by replacing email chains and spreadsheets with automated, rule-based routing, so the right approver acts at the right time and projects move forward without delay.

Reduce compliance risk with audit-ready governance

Customers enforce corporate authority on every transaction and capture a complete, tamper-evident record of who approved what and when, reducing audit preparation, strengthening SOX compliance, and closing the gaps left by manual approvals.

Keep approvals moving even when approvers are away

Customers avoid bottlenecks through automatic escalation and backup delegation, so requests never stall when someone is unavailable, capital decisions stay on schedule, and project timelines and budgets stay protected.

Configure multi-stage approval matrices with role-based routing rules

Define each approval stage with a primary role, deadline, delegate, stage type, and dollar limit per category. The configured stages are sequenced into an approval chain that the system generates automatically, routing every request through the defined approvers in order.

Return requests for changes and reinitiate them for re-approval

Group requests by approval status, including created, in progress, withdrawn, changes requested, approved, and rejected. When an approver returns a request for changes, the initiator opens it from the changes-requested view and reinitiates it to start a new approval round.
