description: 'An agent (person or organization) that approves or authorized something.
**DEFINITION**:
Approver represents the agent responsible for approving decisions, policies, budgets, or other organizational actions. This replaces simple string fields like `approved_by` with a structured class that can link to person or organization entities.
**ONTOLOGY ALIGNMENT**:
- PROV-O: `prov:Agent` - entity that bears responsibility - FOAF: `foaf:Agent` - agent (person or organization) - Schema.org: `schema:Person` or `schema:Organization`
**USE CASES**:
1. **Budget Approval**: Who approved the budget allocation 2. **Policy Approval**: Who authorized the policy 3. **Decision Records**: Documenting approval chains'
