Set up approvals and cost centers

Turn on Enterprise

Choose the Enterprise ERP profile in Settings → Your business.

Approval rules

Add rules for what needs approval: bill payments, stock write-offs, wholesale invoices or purchase orders, above an amount, and who may approve (for example owner only).

The approvals inbox

Overview → Approvals shows what is waiting for me and what I asked. Approve, or turn it down with a reason. When approved, the person repeats the action and it goes through — the approval is used once and only for exactly what was asked. Nobody can approve their own request.

Cost centers

ERP → Cost centers: create centers (Kitchen, Fuel, Head office). Tag journal lines and bills, then view the P&L by cost center.
