Suggested Answer

Purchase document approval only when asked.

When accounting is putting in purchase documents, most of the time they don't need approval, so they are posted.
But in some cases the purchase documents must be approved by the CEO before posting.
 
When I use the flow "Purchase invoice approval workflow", he asks for every purchase document an approval.
I don't want it to be standard or always on, I want it to be an option, only when the accountant asks for an approval.
 
I don't immediately find similar cases. Could somebody please help us?
This is the flow:

    You  can look at your filters for the conditions to create criteria to determine when an approval needs to be sent. In your first event "Approval of a purchase document is requested" you can check the Conditions here:
     
    This is where you can set conditions for how a workflow should operate:

    You can always make it so approvals just send based off a global dimension or dollar amount or by any other field on the Purchase Header. If you need detailed support I recommend working with a partner who can help you build dimensions.

    Hii There , 
    as per requirement you can assign for approval work flow for some of user as direct approvar . or as per requireent based on amount you can assign user chain for approval. 

    or you can assign based on some of logic like Dimensions or any Custom field based on that you can sent request for approval. same kind of reference is provided above.

    if you found answer . mark this verified.

    Thank You.
