Requisition Workflow GP2013 R2

Posted on by 109

OK GP Community anyone else looked into the new requisition workflow and uncovered some issues in defining the approval. I have a company that wants to set up an approval workflow where a the department head can approve up to $1000.  That I get, I can make a work flow to look at the document amount and send to the manger assuming the Department head is the manager.  Where I have issues is in some departments the department head is not the immediate manager.  I considered identifying the dept using the GL account but how do I now that John X can approve up to $1000.  I feel like this is something missing here.  Also what if the IT dept fills out the requisition but the approval needs to route through the department that is actually getting the technology. This would make direct manager and hierarchy levels not pertain to this workflow. 

The only option I have come up with is having the users fill out a user defined field with the Dept in it. 

This still leaves me with the concern since I cannot see the AD hierarchy that someone will be able to approve a requisition that is not authorized for that dollar amount. 

If you have a thought let me know.  Thank you in advance.

    Brenda no there has not been any update on this.  I still do not know if the approver has the permission to approve the dollar amount.  I have progressed my thinking on this and came up with a way if I ever have another client asking for it.  I have unfortunately resulted to triggers in SQL to make it work the way I need it to.

    I have come up with a work around for that client but I do not like the solution.  I still cannot confirm the approve has the approval authority at the value of the Req.
