Control

Without complexity

Cobase gives you the flexibility to match your internal control policies while reducing administrative overhead. Whether you need a strict four-eye policy or a lightweight two-step flow, Cobase ensures your payment processes remain secure, auditable, and compliant — without slowing you down.

SmartWorkFlow
Multi-level approval workflows

Define one-step or multi-step approval chains based on payment type, amount, currency, legal entity, or account.

UserGroups
Role-based access

Assign roles such as initiator, reviewer, approver, or releaser. Only authorized users can perform actions based on their assigned user-group permissions.

Complexity
Threshold-based logic

Set approval requirements that vary by amount or risk level — for example, single approval for payments under €10,000 and dual approval above.

AuditTrail
Audit trail and compliance

Every step in the workflow — from creation to execution — is logged and time-stamped for audit readiness. Ensure clear separation between payment entry, approval, and release to reduce operational risk and comply with internal policies.
