Before you commit spend
These sample bands are not a substitute for an authoritative policy. Confirm how the applicable total is calculated, whether a purchase is recurring or an exception, which approvers apply, and whether your location or employee group follows a different route.
Use the Procurement app for the configured purchasing workflow. If the current policy or approval owner is not clear, pause the purchase and ask Northstar’s confirmed procurement policy owner. The site publisher should link to the single authoritative policy home only after confirming it.
Template setup: Replace the sample amounts and routes only after confirming the current policy, scope, owner, and review trigger.
