The approval path should fit the request
A replacement and a four-position expansion should not follow the same path.
Approval levels and impact limits help everyday staffing work keep moving while larger FTE or cost changes receive the additional review they need.

Use department roles and approval assignments to select the right reviewers.
Impact thresholds
Require additional review when an FTE or cost change exceeds a limit you set.
