I. What is the meaning of approval and signature?
The examination and approval of signature is the last procedure of document finalization, and the signature takes effect. Passing the examination and approval is a link in the process of issuing documents. Official document examination and approval is an integral part of the final work, which is of great significance to the quantity and quality of official documents. Once the official document is issued, it is not allowed to make any changes.
Second, the difference between countersigning and countersigning
The signature can set the process position, and the countersignature only plays the role of notification. Signature can be divided into three types: pre-signature, post-signature and combined signature, that is, adding one or more approvers before, after or at the same time. Current countersignature means that a group of people approve at the same time in the current approval process. Signature means that the signatory can only receive it after it is submitted by the current person in charge; The current countersignature means that the current manager and the countersignee form a countersignature group, and the countersignee can receive it at that time;
So we can analyze the similarities and differences between audit and approval as follows. The similarities are as follows:
Third, the difference between examination and approval.
The similarities are as follows:
1. Both of them have the significance of inspection and review, and should provide the information stipulated by laws, regulations and rules as the basis for examination and approval;
2. Generally, it will be awarded if it meets the conditions;
3. Both can be rejected and need to be revised and re-examined or approved.
The differences are as follows:
1. Approval is generally used in horizontal and cross-departmental business scenarios. For example, the documents provided by the business are approved by the financial department (which plays the role of approval), while approval is generally used between superiors and subordinates;
2. Approval is mostly used for decision-making and handling abnormal situations, such as the delivery exceeding the credit limit, which belongs to the business scenario of approval, while approval is used for auditing (the value of informationization lies in reducing auditing, because the integration of the system and the correct logic of the system can reduce the necessity of auditing), with the aim of reducing the risk of mistakes and being used for daily business;
3. The general review is to reject or continue, indicating approval or disapproval, while the review can be directly terminated and approved, indicating agreement or disapproval.
To sum up, approval is generally related to decision-making, and approval is mainly used for inspection. If it is clearly distinguished, it can be used correctly in the process of business process and accurately describe the business nodes of the process.
