    Hi 

    Yes—re-opening an approved PO is standard.

    • Release → Reopen (Status = Open), make changes, then Send for Approval and Release again.

    • You can only edit what’s not yet posted

    If posted:


    • Partially posted: edit only the remaining qty/price; to fix posted parts use Undo Receipt or Correct/Cancel Posted Purchase Invoice / Credit Memo.

    • Fully posted: you can’t reopen; use corrective documents (Credit Memo/Return Order or Undo Receipt where possible).

    Business note: if your business policy/approval rules allow the change, the system supports it; if policy requires re-approval, enforce re-submit before release to keep governance and audit trail.

     

    Hope that helps 🙂

    As per my knowledge, yes, it's fine and system allowed to re-open the approved PO however once you do the required changes for which user want to reopen the purchase order and you need to take the approval from all approver again.
