Prepare the purchasing decision
Synthetic exception X-V authorises V-X to supply packaging for P-X1 only, up to five units. V-X still has no standing category approval. P-X1 requests five; P-X2 requests the same item later; P-X3 asks for installation. Only the named five-unit packaging purchase passes the exception test. Spend approval and PO release remain separate.
| Purchase | Requested scope | Exception match | Outcome |
|---|---|---|---|
| P-X1 | Packaging / 5 | Named purchase; within cap | Exception eligible |
| P-X2 | Packaging / 5 | Different purchase | New eligibility decision |
| P-X3 | Installation / 1 task | Wrong category and purchase | Not covered |
Complete the recorded outcome
- Read exception ID, named order, category and unit cap.
- Compare the actual proposed purchase with every condition.
- Record use on P-X1 without editing standing approval.
A repeat supplier transaction needs its own eligibility; the old exception is not a reusable template approval.
Does completing P-X1 make P-X2 eligible?
Show the worked answer
No. X-V is scoped to P-X1. Completing that purchase provides history, not standing eligibility.
The exception is a fictional company rule, not a waiver of law or proof of product fitness.
