Inheritance


Rules can be inherited, and it is important to know how inheritance works within various levels of the Buying Organization hierarchy. Since the Buying Organization rules are inherited, after they are enabled, they also apply to the child of that Buying Organization, and further children down the line.

However, an Administrator may override a rule that was enabled in the parent, by re-configuring the approver assignments for a rule in a child Buying Organization.

Any approver or approval group assigned to a rule must be a member of the Buying Organization for which the rule is being configured. If an approver isn't designated for a rule within a Buying Organization, the Buying Organization will inherit approvers from its parent.
