FAQs

Frequently asked questions about the Check Purchase Requests:

What happens if a request has no current budget?

You get a comment on the request naming the missing budget context. The budget owner you choose can check it before approval.

Can I set the budget review rule?

Yes. You choose the purchase programs, budget periods, minimum remaining-budget threshold, review time, and budget owner to mention.

Will this Agent approve purchase requests?

No. You get a budget finding on each unchecked request. Your budget owner can review it before a manager approves spending.

Will it comment again on a request it already checked?

No. You won't get a duplicate when the same request amount already has a budget finding.

What happens when the Agent is unsure?

It stops and asks you. The Agent does not guess when it reaches a decision you have not approved.

Can I review its work?

Yes. Every run creates a plain-language log that you can review and export. Logs are kept for twelve months.

What happens if I cancel?

The Agent stops at the end of the billing month and its tool connections are removed. Your run logs remain available for twelve months.
