Authorization Reminders

Use the Authorization reminders scheduled task to send the reminders by e-mail to the account managers and sub-accounts who have orders that need to be authorized.

Ordering process is critically important for most businesses and for some the order approval workflow is essential. It is used to enforce the business rules of a company to ensure that all orders are within budget. In the Sana webstore, account managers can create sub-accounts with a limited budget whose orders need to be authorized if an order exceeds the limit. For more information, see Shop Account Roles.
