Overview of OMS

Spend & Approval Limits
Full Rights users determine which users submit and approve orders, and can set spending and approval limits for each account user. Additionally, Full Rights users can assign default approvers to each person on the account.
Approval Process
If a user attempts to checkout with an order total above his spend limit, he must submit his order to a user with approval rights. The approval user can then edit, approve, deny or forward the order. The user who originated the order will be notified of the order status via email.
