>We have a Purchases system, and this system includes some authorization levels for purchase requisition, item requisitions, and others. now, when somebody of any department create a purchase requisition, this should be authorized by the head of department, now the boss should go to the system and run the option to see all the purchase requisitions(PR) to be aproved and aproves them or rejects them.

You can send them an HTML formatted message that would have a form post to a local intranet/extranet website that could handle the responses.
You could also have a system that monitored an email account and they could reply to the message with a yes or no and the automated system could check their response and handle it accordingly.

You might find products on my site that could assist you with this.
