Vendor invoice workflow help: The workflow should be assigned to the Purchaser orderer, else it should go to the department

Hallo Forum

I am trying to figure out how to solve this case with Vendor invoice workflow. 

It should start with an Conditional looking for a "Purchaser.order.orderer"

  1. If that is blank it should move forward to approval by the Department associated with the invoice. 
    1. In this step there should be defined a first approver and a second approver defined per department (set up as roles)
  2. If there is a "Purchaser.order.orderer" it should be sent to the purchaser orderer as first approver and then the manager of the purchaser orderer as second approver.

    Hello Benjamin,

    I do not think, all your requirements are something we can get Out of the box.

    You can make use of the conditional decision to define who approves based on the department.

    [quote user="Benjamin N."]If there is a "Purchaser.order.orderer" it should be sent to the purchaser orderer as first approver and then the manager of the purchaser orderer as second approver.[/quote]

    The hierarchy architecture that will pick the line manager is built on the workflow originator/ or the workflow owner. Hence, you can not get the manager of the PO order in the workflow engine.
