1 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ a purchase order before committing to a vendor, rather than a spend nobody in finance's actually approved.'
We 'raise a purchase order' — the standard, simple collocation for formally initiating a vendor spend. The other options are less idiomatic here.
2 / 5
Fill in: 'Skipping the approval step on a large order can ___ a budget overrun nobody's actually flagged until the invoice arrives.'
We say a skipped approval will 'leave' an overrun unflagged — the standard, natural collocation for the resulting budget surprise. The other options aren't idiomatic here.
3 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ every purchase order to the budget owner for sign-off, rather than a spend nobody's actually authorized.'
We 'route an order' — the standard, simple collocation for sending a purchase order to its approver. The other options are less idiomatic here.
4 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ every order against the approved budget line, rather than a purchase nobody's actually reconciled.'
We 'check an order' — the standard, simple collocation for confirming a purchase fits its approved budget. The other options are less idiomatic here.
5 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ open purchase orders against actual delivery, rather than an invoice nobody's actually matched to a receipt.'
We 'track orders' — the standard, simple collocation for monitoring purchase orders through to fulfillment. The other options aren't idiomatic here.
