Why this workflow works

  • Business case, cost evidence, budget owner review, and approval status remain connected.
  • Finance teams can see incomplete justifications, returned items, and approvals waiting on owner action.
  • CapEx decisions can hand off to payment, procurement, contract, or asset tracking without overclaiming ERP coverage.
