Procurement category access policy based on cost center hierarchy

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 45

Hi all,

I am trying to set up procurement category access policy. I´ve managed to make it work with departments, but not with cost centers.

Does anybody know if this policy works with cost centers as well? If yes, how is the setup?

Second question is, if I have to use positions in human resources module when using departments. I saw a screenshot in a blog where somebody entered the department simply as a financial dimension in the employee record. I couldn´t make it work that way, so I had to use a position with a department linked to it.

Thanks in advance for any help on this.

best regards,

Benjamin

    I think you need to do two setups,

    1. Create org hierarchy with procurement internal control purpose and add cost center

    2. While creating policy use this hierarchy rather then company

    On postion department can be mapped but need to see how you want to use that

    Hi Saurabh,

    I tried it with a hierarchy using cost center. It did not work.
