When this template fits
Who it is for
For companies where several people may order and nobody has the overview. Especially when invoices arrive for which nobody can find an order.
Where it typically stalls
At the approval threshold. If it is not written down from which amount who approves, habit decides. That surfaces at the latest during an audit. The template makes the threshold a decision point.
What it connects to
Downstream is invoice verification, which has nothing to match without the order. For new suppliers, supplier approval comes first.
Relation to standards
Traceable approvals and the separation of requesting and authorising are standard audit points. The template keeps them apart.
