Use this prompt to design an approval workflow system before generating the interface. It asks for the records, rules, owners, review cadence, and exception paths needed to map request types, thresholds, approvers, fallback owners, and decision deadlines in one auditable workflow.
Why This Matters
Approvals stall when rules live in email threads and nobody knows who owns the next decision. The system keeps the facts, owner, status, and next action together so the team can improve the process instead of rebuilding context every week.
What This Prompt Produces
- Structured memory: Track request type, amount or risk threshold, approver, fallback approver, due date, and decision.
- Decision views: Use a request table, status board, and calendar for decision deadlines.
- AI assistance: An agent checks each request against the matrix and drafts a concise approval brief.
- Execution: Automation routes approved requests forward, reminds overdue approvers, and records the decision.
How To Use It
- List every request type and the condition that changes who approves it.
- Assign primary and fallback approvers with a decision deadline.
- Create the request form and status stages.
- Test normal, exception, rejection, and overdue paths before launch.
Who It Is For
This use case fits finance, legal, procurement, HR, security, and operations teams.
