6. The approval hierarchy for online payment transactions utilizes the signatory authority hierarchy maintained by the Controller’s Office.  It is based on the department and project number in the account code combination for the transaction.  The same hierarchy process is also used for invoices and expenses.  To change the hierarchy use the Certificate of Delegated Authority form.Certificate of Delegated Authority  FYI Notification upon final approval will be generated to the supervisor of the employee receiving the payment UPDATED APPROVAL RULES

7.  Add Approvers  The person entering the transaction can add approvers at any point prior to the final approver  Approver options – an email workflow notification will be sent to each approver in sequence. The approver can approve through the email notification or directly through Oracle RIT Workflow User.  Approve – moves to next approver, if final approver will create the payment on the employee record  Reject – rejects and cancels the transaction  Reassign – this allows the approver to forward/delegate the approval notification to another approver. This is the mechanism for additional approvers to be added at the end of the approval chain.  Request Information - This will return the original transaction to the person that originally entered it into their Saved Actions. There is a text box to enter a note. This removes it from the approval chain until it is resubmitted.  Once all the approvers have approved the transaction, the entry will be added to the employee’s record in Oracle.
