Seeking Expert Advice: Journal Voucher (JV) Approval Tracking in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
Hi Experts,
I’d like your guidance on a common audit-related requirement in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central.
Auditor’s / Users Question:
How can we clearly track who sent a Journal Voucher (JV) for approval and who approved it—especially after posting?
Current My Understanding:
Business Central manages approvals through workflows, and we can review them in:
🔍 Posted Approval Entries
This provides: (Filters)
- Sender ID – User who initiated the approval (If we know )
- Approver ID – User who approved/rejected ((If we know ))
- Status & Date-Time –
Practical Challenges:
In real-time business scenarios, especially during month-end closing:
- Multiple users post multiple journal batches simultaneously
- If Sender/Approver is unknown, locating the correct approval entry is difficult
- No direct linkage between:
- Posted entries (G/L Entries / G/L Register/Ledger Entries ?)
- And their corresponding approval records
