Amount-Based Grant Approval Thresholds with Assignable Approvers
Clients need approval tiers configured by grant dollar amount (e.g., grants over $50K require VP approval) rather than percentages, which don't reflect how most organizations structure financial controls. The addition of named approver assignment per tier would further close a workflow gap that is creating friction for clients with formal governance requirements. This is a broadly applicable enhancement with high adoption potential across nonprofit and foundation finance teams.
Currently, this workflow exists for check approvals only, we are requesting it for grant approvals.

Yes, this is a recurring client ask!
Ideally, the voucher approval would follow the same structure like payment/check approval with amount-based levels and the option to assign different approvers, with an additional option to apply the approval levels to grants only
