If you require your authorization on your quotation, sales order or purchase order (e.g authorization by an approving officer or admin of the application), you can set these documents to be subjected to approval such that when a non-admin or user without approving rights creates any of these documents, certain actions cannot be performed before approval by the approving officer. The approval request may be rejected.
