Scenario 2

Manager #1 (7201) enters a credit limit increase request for 24,000 USD. Since Manager #1 is in Group 2 of the distribution list, the system will start looking at the next group, Group 3. Because this value is under the threshold value for Group 3, no message will be sent. These two exceptions to this scenario exist:

  • If Authorization Required is turned on in this distribution list, then the message will be sent to Group 3 even though the credit limit request of 24,000 is smaller than the threshold value of Group 3.

  • If the originator is in the highest group, then the system starts looking at the level of the originator since there is no higher level at which to start. For example, if the president enters a credit limit increase request for 24,000, the system starts checking threshold value criteria against Group 5. In this case, no message will be sent because 24,000 is smaller than the threshold value of Group 5.
