Frequently asked questions

What is “Signature Authority Matrix”?

Internal policy setting out who may sign, jointly or alone, for which kind of transaction and up to which amount threshold. The matrix is paired with a list of authorised signatories and review rules; approval by the board or a duly empowered body is recorded. On papii this document is available as template generic.finance.signature_authority_matrix: a JSON Schema plus a deterministic PDF renderer, so the same data always produces the same document.

Can I generate a Signature Authority Matrix with AI?

Yes. chut.app — the AI back office papii powers — fills this template from a plain-language description: you describe the document in one sentence, the AI structures the data, papii validates it against the schema and renders the PDF. Developers can also call the papii API directly with structured JSON.

Is the Signature Authority Matrix template legally compliant?

This template is render-verified: its schema, sample data and PDF output are automatically tested on every release. It is published with status “ready”, meaning it has not yet been through papii’s final legal review. Where it references specific legislation, that is stated in the template description — always have a professional check documents with legal effect before relying on them.
