HUMAN APPROVAL MATRIX · EDIT & DOWNLOAD
Give AI a job.
Keep the right controls.
Define which actions may proceed and which decisions stay with a person.
Describe the specific action
Separate reading, drafting, internal updates and external actions. Permission to prepare is not permission to execute.
Define the decision boundary
Name the authorized owner and evidence required. Your operational and legal requirements take precedence over these examples.
Specify the waiting state
If an approval is missing, expired or based on changed information, define how the workflow holds and escalates.
| Action | Permission boundary | Decision owner | Evidence required | If unresolved | Remove row |
