Which users are given access to Periodic Direct Debits?

When does a Periodic Direct Debit need to be approved?
- If your organisation has Approval Required for Templates selected from Administration > Other Settings > Division Details Screen, then the Periodic Direct Debit schedule requires approval
- If the active Periodic Direct Debit is edited and your organisation has Approval Required for Templates selected from Administration > Other Settings > Division Details Screen, then the Periodic Direct Debit schedule requires approval
- For each scheduled instance when the Periodic Direct Debit is due, the Periodic Direct Debit instance requires approval from the Current Direct Debits screen or Pending Approval workspace widget
Why can I approve a direct debit created from a periodic direct debit schedule when I do not have 'Allow Self Approval' entitlements?
The system automatically generates the periodic direct debit instance up to seven days before the value date. Therefore, the ‘Allow Self Approval’ entitlements does not apply.
