There still seems to be a bit of confusion when authoring approval rules using Charge Account regexp match conditions. The operator for equals to write rules is 'Matches' not 'Equals'.

Customers log bugs stating approval rules did not fire as expected even with simple conditions. Here is a sample rule:

Incorrect:

Conditions > AND

Requisition Amount Greater than 10000

Requisitioning BU Equals Vision Operations

Charge Account Equals (.*)-(.*)-(.*)-1009

Correct:

Conditions > AND

Requisition Amount Greater than 10000

Requisitioning BU Equals Vision Operations

Charge Account Matches (.*)-(.*)-(.*)-1009
