- Those tickets are submitted for approval to specific Approver(s). Approvers are specific Jira users who have a right to say yes or no for specific purchase request
- Approvers will receive a notification email when their say is needed
- Approvers decide if specific purchase request should be approved. If approved, the purchase requests becomes a purchase order with a customizeable PDF file attached to your Jira ticket. You can send it via email to your supplier
- The purchase order follows your Jira project workflow, which means that you can fully customise it as per your org. needs
- Finance department and Approvers have overview of current state of budgets from the convenience of Jira
