Scenario
Tina needs to check the invoice amount on each invoice assigned to her. If the invoice amount is less than $1000, she can send the invoice for payment to Rob, but if the invoice amount is more than $1000, she needs to send the invoice to either Jack or the Accounts group for approval. If Jack or anyone from the Accounts group approves it, the invoice is sent to Rob for payment.
