In order to maintain good internal controls and oversight of departmental funds - the decision has been made to export all RazorBuy requisitions into BASIS to utilize the TARGET routing for approvals. TARGET Approval Process
A new TARGET review criterion is being developed to streamline REQT approvals. • Applies to REQT transactions only • New review criterion will have an additional tier for approvals that is designed to assist in streamlining the approval of small dollar purchases. • TARGET policy rules apply New review criterion
The immaterial review is broken into two groups – transactions $1,000 or less and those above $1,000 and less than $10,000. • An opportunity to assign different reviewers to each of these groups or leave them the same. Immaterial Review
Workflow (review) will be based upon the Company/BU of each of the cost centers. • User based review • No central administrative approval necessary • Please keep in mind that if a person is designated as a reviewer in RazorBuy and TARGET – that person will have to review/approve in both applications. Departmental Review (optional)
Allows users to make revisions to the purchase requisition. • Provides more flexibility for setting up substitutes (i.e. proxy). • Permits the lower level review to be performed within RazorBuy. • Allows users to review and approve purchase requisitions via email (the user will enter his/her PIN for identification and security). Advantages of Departmental Review
