Approve purchase overrides
Review and approve requests to deviate a specific payment-made from the standard schedule — early payment with discount, part payment, or extended terms.

Purchase overrides are the money-out analogue of payment plan overrides. A Finance user raises a request to deviate a scheduled payment to a vendor or plot owner from the plan; a booking.approve holder signs off.
Open the queue
Step 1: Open Approvals → Purchase overrides
The queue shows every pending request with the originating bill or plot-owner tranche, the requested change and the submitter.

Review the diff
Step 1: Click a row
The preview shows the current scheduled payment against the requested payment side-by-side. Changes are highlighted — adjusted amounts in amber, pushed dates in rose.
Step 2: Read the justification
The submitter must have filled a justification (e.g. "early payment discount of 2%", "vendor requested EMI due to delivery delay"). Thin justifications → reject with a note.
Approve or reject
Step 1: Click Approve
The new scheduled payment replaces the old one. The purchase dunning worker is notified so the vendor-side reminder stops firing.
Step 2: Click Reject
The submitter sees the reason. The original schedule holds.
