    Hey community, thank you for continuing to highlight how important multi-level approvals for paying bills can be for teams of all sizes. We’re currently building a customisable bill approval workflow into Xero that'll let admins set rules based on factors such as amount, supplier, account code or who submitted the bill. You’ll then be able to automatically route bills through selected approvers in sequential or parallel steps. ✨

    Approvers will be able to take action in Xero, with a digital audit trail captured in history and notes to identify who approved a bill and when - Helping to keep the approval chain moving. You can read more about our direction in our update on The Long and Short of It.

    I’ll come back to share as this begins to officially rollout.

    You are probably referring to ApprovalMax. Not only is the AM process not integral to Xero, but it is possible to circumvent the ApprovalMax approval requirements within Xero.

    This is a fundamental concept of disbursement control. It is absurd that we have to expose our payment system to the risk of an external app to get this done.
