GP 2013 R2 Purchase Requisition Workflow

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Microsoft Employee

I have a simple 1 step approval workflow for purchase requisitions. When a purchase requisition is submitted by a user other than the approver, it is not being displayed for the approver to approve. However, if I change the "Display Requisitions During Entry for:" in the Requisitions Setup to "All Requisitions" for the approver, then everything works as expected. Is this intended functionality? I would not think you'd have to setup every approver to be able to view all requisitions.

    Hi George,  Thanks for the question.  No, this is not the intended functionality.  If an approver is assigned a requisition, they should be allowed to view it.  We have a known issue around this scenario and are working to correct it.

    Regards

    Hello Mr. George

    I can clearly see that you have posted several questions regarding the new requisition management of GP 2013 R2. I will try to cover as much as possible of your inquiries.

    The scenario you described above is absolutely correct, and it is the current behavior of the new requisition management of GP 2013 R2, although, I don't ever believe that this is the intended functionality. In previous versions of the requisition management; built on business portal, this was a very basic functionality which enables you to show or hide the pending tasks/requisitions according to the user/ role to which this task/requisition is assigned.

    I mentioned this problem almost two months ago Questions regarding workflow in GP 2013 R2  It was stated:

    " The requisition being created and submitted for approvals according to the "Active" workflow results with a "task" for the next level approver with no issues at all. Although, when the next level approver signs in, there is no tasks on the Home Page, Pending tasks pane under Procurement section. Additionally, when this specific approver opens the requisition inquiry or the transaction window to look for "requisitions assigned to me, or my role", nothing appears at all.  The only way to get the requisitions (including the ones assigned to me/my role) shown is to click on the "View all Requisitions".  Though, This is still being tested "

    I have reported this and sure that it will be considered in further versions.

    I know, these not address your issue, but explaining the workflow process in GP.

    Please check whether you followed the Workflow process/steps correctly.
