Managing Confirmation Agreements

Objective

After completing this lesson, you will be able to configure and manage invoice confirmation agreements.

Confirmation Agreements Overview

Confirmation agreements in workflows are used when a company requires a legally binding acceptance statement from their employees. There are two types of confirmation agreements: Submit and Approve. They can be configured to appear when a user submits, or an approver approves, an invoice or purchase request. When a user or approver accepts the terms of the confirmation agreement, an audit trail entry is created to satisfy legal requirements.

Note

You can only assign one Submit confirmation agreement per workflow.
