Regularization: Set up Approval Policies for Regularization Requests

An Approval policy has Approval Criteria and an Approval Flow. In this Article, we shall see how to set these up for Regularization Requests at your organization

Navigate to the "Approval Policies" tab in the Core Platform


Click on "Create an Approval Policy" under the Regularization tab


Give the Policy a Name and click on the "Add Criteria" button under "Approval Criteria" to add your first criterion


Select the first operand. this could be any attribute of the Regularization request. Go through the list to see all the attributes available and select the one that suits your requirement
One example could be limiting Regularization Requests that are created upto a specific number of days which is when they are auto approved
You could also filter out Regularization Requests that are requested by a user belonging to a specific Team, Department, etc


Now select the value of the operand and combine it with the other criteria for the approval policy using the AND or OR operatorsas shown




Now you can configure the approval flow. There are three options to choose from:
Auto Approve Requests belonging to this criteria
Auto Reject/Restrict Requests belonging to this criteria (With a predefined reason)
Set up an approval chain for such requests


When you want to set up an approval chain for the request, you can add as many steps as you wish in the chain. The way to do it is as follows:
First select the approver type for every step in the chain
Then select the value of the type for that particular step



You can add and remove steps in the approval chain as you wish


Finally, click on the "Submit" button to save your Approval policy.


Note: The order of the approval policies matters. Whenever a request is created, it follows the first policy in the order that matches the approval critera. To change the order, click on the 6 dot icon on the approval policy card and drag it to the desired position in the list.


Congratulations, you have now set up a Regularization Request Approval Policy in your Organisation
