Can approvers be defined at the department level? When would you use an ad hoc approver?

Transactions are routed to all transactors who:

  1. have the approval role for the transaction type, and
  2. have row-level access to the department associated with the employee/position.

Most transactions, including Additional Pay, require one level of approval. That said, an approver has the ability to add an ad-hoc approver prior to approving the transaction, if necessary. Please note, adding ad-hoc approvers can slow down the completion of the transaction.
