    Hi Saurav Dam,

    Thanks for responding.

    I have a question. Lets say, invoices above 10,000 USD should be approved. This will anyway be taken care by conditional approvals. Then whats the use/purpose of policies.

    Thanks

    Pranav

    And even if policies and approvals are used, DAX is stopping becoz policy is violated. It is not passing thru the work flow as its throwing error for policy being violated. So what is the use of policy.

    Hi Pranav,

    In a nutshell, I would say that the main purpose is reducing / avoiding mistakes when entering invoice data.

    There are of course other tools that might also help but invoice policies give a lot of flexibility because you can define the filter parameters and you can define in which company or organizational unit to apply them

    Best regards,

    vendor invoice policy helps in invoice validation and usage in workflow

    think of additional control gate to check in workflow and route accordingly
