Does MoneyWorks have approval workflows for invoices and expenses?

Partly. MoneyWorks Gold and Datacentre support custom purchase order approval built with validations, mwScript scripts and custom forms, so approval has to be configured rather than switched on. However, the standard user privileges have no approve or authorise privilege, only entry and processing rights. Expense claim approvals are not publicly documented for MoneyWorks. Vergo adds optional approvals on spend before it posts into MoneyWorks.

Where Vergo fits with MoneyWorks

Vergo adds approvals on the spend before it reaches MoneyWorks. Approval workflows are optional and fit how you already control spend: route by GL account or by amount — or skip approval flows entirely and let policy flags catch only what breaks a rule. Approved card spend posts into MoneyWorks, coded to your GL code and department suffix.
