Tech/Engineering - Manufacturing / Supply management guidelines

English term or phrase: deviation must be constrained by formal approval

I am translating some supply chain guidelines, which are written in some very strange English.
I am struggling with the following sentence:

**Any deviation to [the flow description] must be constrained by formal approval of the hierarchical responsible for the stocks budget and associated with corrective action plan.**

I have no idea how you can constrain a deviation by approval, formal or otherwise, but this is what I came up with so far:

Jegliche Abweichungen [von der Ablaufbeschreibung] müssen durch fomelle Zustimmung der in der Hierarchie für das Lagerbudget Verantwortlichen eingeschränkt und mit einem korrektiven Maßnahmenplan verbunden werden.

Does this make sense to anyone?
Thanks for your help.

Explanation:
Hallo Birgit.

Es müsste, wenn ich nicht schief gewickelt bin, folgendermaßen aussehen:

Alle Abweichungen von [the flow description] sind durch den jeweils übergeordneten Verantwortlichen für das Lagerbudget offiziell freizugeben, und ein Plan bezüglich Abstellmaßnahmen ist zu erstellen.
(oder - was mir aber weniger gefällt: ... sind von einem Plan ... zu begleiten.)

Note: "contained" bedeutet auch "erzwungen"
