What’s New

We’ve introduced a new Partially Approved status for transactions that support multi-line routing or sequential approvals.

This status now applies across the following transaction types:

• Expense Claims
• Purchase Orders
• Supplier Invoices
• Credit Cards
• Client Job Invoices
• Estimates
• Journals
• Weekly Timesheets

A transaction will move to Partially Approved as soon as at least one approval has been completed while one or more approvals are still outstanding.

Why Does It Matter?

Many transactions do not move through approval in a single step. Depending on the transaction type, individual lines may be routed to different approvers, and approvals may also move through multiple levels in sequence.

Until now, transactions remained in Submitted status until all approvals were complete. This meant that even after one or more approvers had taken action, submitters and reviewers had no clear way to see that the transaction was already progressing through the approval workflow.

The new Partially Approved status closes that visibility gap by showing when a transaction is actively moving through approval, but has not yet been fully approved.

How Does It Work?

The overall transaction status reflects the most significant action across all lines and approval levels.

Once any approval has been completed and additional approvals are still pending, the transaction will show as Partially Approved.

This includes scenarios where:

• One or more lines have been approved while other lines are still awaiting approval.
• A line has passed first-level approval and moved to the next approval level.
• A single-line transaction has been approved at one level and is waiting for the next-level approval.

If a transaction is later rejected or reopened for editing, that action takes precedence. In those cases, the transaction will show Manager Rejected or Manager Editing instead of Partially Approved.

Once all required lines and approval levels have been approved, the transaction will move to Manager Approved.
