Trigger

Action
Bypass All Invoice Approvals
Tool to bypass all approvals for an invoice to enable rapid payment processing. Use when you need to skip the entire approval chain and get an invoice approved immediately. Note that the invoice must be in an approvable status (e.g., 'pending_approval'), not 'draft' status.
Why this helps
Urgent operational purchases can miss payment windows while every approval step waits.
- Surface urgent payment cases
- Apply a defined exception rule
- Reduce missed payment windows
