Administration guidance
Manage procurement policies
Define effective-dated purchase rules and evidence expectations for consistent control evaluation.
- FOR
- Organisation administrator, Procurement, Auditor
- OUTCOME
- Use RAQOZ to define effective-dated purchase rules and evidence expectations for consistent control evaluation.
Before you begin
- Organisation administrator access, or another role explicitly permitted for the setting.
- The organisation has agreed the control or operating decision before configuration.
Guidance
- 1
Create a draft policy from the organisation's approved procurement requirements.
- 2
Define the available scope, rule conditions, evidence requirements and exception treatment.
- 3
Review the draft independently and activate only the approved version.
- 4
Do not describe policy configuration as legal, statutory or certification compliance.
Evidence RAQOZ retains
- Policy draft and scope
- Review and activation events
- Effective-dated active version
Common issues
A configuration change behaves differently than expected.
Review scope, effective date, inheritance and status. Use a representative test or no-write simulation before activating a policy change.
A prior transaction appears to use an older rule.
That may be correct. Effective-dated versions preserve the policy context used at the time instead of rewriting history.
