Why have I been asked to approve Funds request?

Why am I being asked to approve a Funds request?
If you see a funds request, you are an Approver and someone has asked for funds to be transferred to a specific balance.

Who are Approvers?
Approvers are people who can approve Funds requests.
All Owners and Admins can approve requests across all balances. Balance Admins can only approve requests for their assigned balances and sub-balances.

Who is notified of a Funds request?
Normally, only people in the Approval tier who are Owners, Admins or a Balance Admin for the destination Balance.
However, all Owners and Admins will be notified if no one on the approval tier meets the following criteria:

  • They are either a Balance Admin of the destination Balance, or an Owner or Admin
  • They have not already approved the request on a previous tier
  • They are not the person who requested the funds
