A new chair stops at the manager, a new server goes all the way up. Add Purchase Requests to your workspace It installs from the App Library inside Cordango and starts working with what you already have. Installing this also installs Budget & Spend Tracker. [Get early access](https://www.cordango.com/start/?app=purchase-requests) A laptop or a software licence takes a few questions on a form finance designed, rather than an email to whoever might know. Each request carries line items, quotes and the budget line it should come out of. Small amounts stop at the manager, larger ones go on to finance and then management, and nobody can approve their own. Once it’s bought, the real cost is recorded next to the estimate, and the approved money is committed in the Budget & Spend Tracker, which installs alongside. ## What it does - What is wanted, in line items, with the quotes that priced them - Forms finance designs, so asking to buy something takes a few questions - The amount decides the approvers, so nobody has to know the policy - Approving your own request is refused rather than discouraged - The decision trail is written by the approvals themselves, not by hand - What was really bought, recorded against what was estimated ## What's included ### Records - Purchase request - Line item - Quote - Decision - Purchase form - Question - Submission - Answer ### Workflows **Purchase request:** Draft · With the manager · With finance · With management · Approved · Purchased · Rejected · Cancelled ### Roles - Requester - Manager - Finance approver - Executive approver 5 pages · 4 views ## How it connects Every app here installs on its own and works on its own.
