Approval Workflow restricting Purchase Order invoice posting, not release of Purchase Order

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 191
We want to set up a purchase order approval workflow that only restricts the invoice posting of the purchase order if it is not approved.   Is this possible, or does the restriction have to be on the release of the purchase order?  Basically, I want the approval restriction to be Post Invoice, not Release.

    Workflow restricting invoice posting
    Hi, I have discovered that feature (it's a great one!).  But what I meant was an approval workflow (should have stated that more clearly).  I would like the restriction on the approval workflow to only be for posting the invoice, not for the release of the order or for posting a receipt.

    Hi,
     
    Do you mean that you don't want the user to have the ability to post (i.e. Invoice) the purchase order?
     
     
    Depending on the version you are using there are new fields on the user setup table.
     
     
    If you use Prohibited then the user will only be allowed to receive the order.
     
     
    Mandatory option will post and invoice the purchase order.
     
    Hope that helps,
    Shauna
