Hi,

You add a calculated field to the workflow document.
I found some documentation on it here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/fin-ops-core/dev-itpro/organization-administration/workflow-type-document-create#add-a-calculated-field-to-the-workflow-document-class

Otherwise have a look in the standard application (Classes implementing WorkflowDocument).

EDIT: Same procedure in AX2012 and D365 F&O

I saw this solution before but I still don't know which workflow document class is related to purchase order workflow approval, or I just create the class which only extend WorkflowDocument and it will apply to all my workflows?

Edit:

Am I doing it right? because it doesn't show at placeholders list

The class you need to modify/extend is the PurchTableDocument class.

You can identify the document class of an existing workflow by looking at the workflow type in the AOT. In this case, PurchTableTemplate

Edit: I'm not able to reply. You need to use an EDT with a label, not the basic STR type

Saw your edit. You should use an EDT for the return type with a label, such as description
