Authority Ladder
Map purchase requests to an explicitly defined approval tier.
Prepare your sheet
Use one row per request observation. Enter Value EUR, Delegated limit EUR, Manager limit EUR. Check that every row belongs to the same review scope.
Decision rule
Enter the requester’s delegated limit and the next tier’s limit for each request. A higher amount requires escalation.
Worked result
The fictional example contains 3 input rows. Its result is 1 senior escalation.
| Request | Value | Route |
|---|---|---|
| P1 | €450.00 | Delegated approval |
| P2 | €900.00 | Manager approval |
| P3 | €2,000.00 | Senior escalation |
