Purchasing Policies - Reapproval rule for purchase orders

Posted on by 402

Hi, i ve set my purchasing policies so when I request changes to a confirmed purchase order, I can request changes, edit the serial number in the item lines and then submit the order to the workflow and the purchase auto approves itself.

It works almost perfect because when the WF sets the approval status of the order to Approved instead of confirmed.

Does anyone knows why this happens?

    Hi,

    Check if this is due to Re-approval policy defined.

    Hi Fernando Villaman,

    "Reapproval rule for purchase orders" is to evaluate the criteria you specify in the Purchasing policy to ensure it meets those criteria when comes for approval again.

    Confirmation is a manual approach after PO is approved which is as per default design.

    if there is a need to auto confirm PO after approval is completed, then you need to go for customization. But I recommend not to do that as it does not add any value here.

    'Confirm' action is just a single click in system to update the confirmation status in the PO.

    Regards,
    Sourav

    Hi Fernando Villaman,

    This is standard  behavior, when a PO is approved by WF, it is automatically changed to 'Approved' state, then it has be confirmed manually.
