Has anyone successfully created an approval workflow for job creation either directly in Business Central or via Power Automate? I'm fairly certain it is not available OOB in BC, but I'm hoping someone has had success with Power Automate. Help!
@Inge M. Bruvik any chance you'd be able to share the steps to do that? We basically just want to assign an approver if the total budget cost on a job exceeds a certain threshold. We would like the job to be in a "Blocked: All" state until it is approved.
Hi, just adding some info.
With this release, Microsoft will add more Power Automate templates, which are expected to be available in April and May.

Hope this helps.
Thanks.

That is amazing news! We basically just want to assign an approver if the total budget cost on a job exceeds a certain threshold. We would like the job to be in a "Blocked: All" state until it is approved.
Power Automate should work like a charm for this case if you are running Business Central online.
How do you want your approval workflow to work<?
I'm afraid we do not operate BC on prem and I am not a developer (I'm an accountant). Has anyone had success with power automate?
