Hi, Shirley,

Thank you for letting me know what’s going on.

In terms of the payment process, now I’m kind of confused since you told me as a manager I can approve the PO or payment myself.

When I applied for the first payment, I realized the process in other areas was not totally the same as it is in China, like they can issue invoice in advance, so I asked help from Dolyn(face to face) and Judy (via skype). I should have talked to vicki as well, but I didn’t see her online for she’s on sick leave. To make sure we were on the same page, I sent an email (Please see attachment “ Supporting Doc List….”) for confirmation, I have not received any feedback though.

When I tried to ask Vicki Bi to convert a PO with PR and invoice on Mar. 22, she asked me to provide more supporting documents, including “Manager’s approval”. (Please find attachment “ Re: Purchase Requisition….”). (If I am the one who can approve it, why did she ask me to obtain “manager’s approval”? )Then I talked to Dolyn again, she told me that ANZ need one level up manager’s approval for PO converting. So I updated my word file (Please see “Supporting Doc List for Payment APAC without china.doc”.) which I planned to share with the related colleagues in APAC ( except China) team when it’s confirmed. And that’s why I asked Joanne for payment approval, which makes she think it’s duplicated.

Actually when I’m requested to have their “one level up manager’s approval”, I was not surprised because when I apply for payment making in China, we are requested to fill out the attached excel file （ please find the attachment “付款申请”）with my manager’s signature as well. Not only I but also all the PMs here are requested to do the same.

As you can see, I have been seeking for the standard payment process all these days and NO ONE told me I can approve anything.
If there’s anything improper in my attached word file, please kindly have it corrected. I really hope financial department can give me a final anser.

Much appreciated

EDITED
