Transactions rules provide further flexibility than the default approval status settings, which do not allow conditions be applied.  Transaction rules can be configured to change the default approval status to:
 
  • Approved
  • Excluded
  • Submitted

 
The rule can be applied to:
 
  • Transaction type
  • Conditional IF statements for quantity, labour time and issue quantity
  • Task type
  • Diversion
  • Employee
  • Equipment
Let's assume that you would like to configure a rule that automatically sets the approval status of a quantity transaction, where the quantity is greater than 10000.  It's unlikely employees will ever enter quantities greater than this value and therefore this transaction over 10000 should be investigated.
