How to set-up cross org approvals for your organization
Scenario:
There are 3 entities in an org. Gamma Ltd. is the primary org, and Gamma Asia and Gamma Europe are secondary orgs.
Ryan Gallagher is an employee in Gamma Ltd., the primary org. He is already added as an approver for other employees in this primary org.
Now, Deena Matthew is an employee of Gamma Asia Ltd. the secondary org.
We want to make Ryan Gallagher an approver for Deena Matthew. We will see both cases where
1) Ryan is not an employee of Gamma Asia Ltd, and
2) Ryan is an employee of Gamma Asia Ltd.
How to:
1. Log in to Gamma Asia Ltd, and navigate to Manage Employees in settings.
2. Click on Deena Matthew to open her full employee details
Case 1: Ryan is not an employee of Gamma Asia Ltd
In the primary approver field, fully type in Ryan's email ID. Since he is not employee of Gamma Asia, his name will not appear in the dropdown select list.
Click on 'Save'. Now, Ryan is an approver for Deena.
Case 2: Ryan is an employee of Gamma Asia Ltd
As soon as you click on primary approver field, Ryan's name will be available in the dropdown to select from, as he is an employee of Gamma Asia Ltd.
Click on 'Save'. Now, Ryan is an approver for Deena.

How to set-up project approvals for your organization -
Setting up project approval is similar to cross-org approvals, to do the same follow the below instructions -
1. Log in to the organization where the approver ([email protected]) has been added. Click on Employees from the left section, enter the project approver's name in the search box.

Note:
Cross Org Project Approver: A project approver can be added while creating projects who will approve expenses that are linked to these particular projects. The project approver is different as the primary/secondary approver as he/she will only be approving the expenses where these projects have been mentioned.
Cross Org Approver: Can be a primary/secondary approver who doesn't belong to the same organization as the user.
Cross Org Approval: If you are an approver from Organization Org A and have users reporting from an organization Org B. When you approve the user's report (Org B) from your primary organization (Org A) such approvals are called Cross Org Approval.
Cross Org Project Approval: If you are an approver for Projects X & Y from Organization Org A and there are users from Organization B who have fyled multiple expenses including project X & Y. The approver will be able to approve these particular expenses from Org A. Such approvals are termed Cross Org Project Approval.
