Journal Entry Approvals

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hi:

In Business Central, what window do you access to determine who approves the posting of journal entries?

Likewise, I see two types of "sample" journal entry workflows - one for batch and one for line.  Which one determines who approves a journal entry?

Thanks!

    Hey Josh:

    I went back to the journal entry workflow and, just as you showed me on the vendor approval workflow, it's simply a matter of editing one of the record restrictions to reference the simple workflow user groups that I created.

    At least, I hope that that works.  :)

    Thanks, again for your keen insights and support!!!  Much appreciated!

    Approval user setup is the correct page. User setup hides all the fields.

    Yes, I looked in the User Setup window earlier and saw none of these selections.

    Could a "security thing" be blocking me, so to speak?

    Hi Josh:

    I still don't understand.  Do you simply place the approvers in the workflow user group window and the approval user setup window?

    How do they get applied to the workflow?

    Approval user setup or workflow user applied to the approval workflow.

    Depends on the scenario on which one you go for. Example being most organizations use a batch approval for the payment journal as it’s cash going out. For a line approval it might be if it’s a certain combination of dimensions or over a certain value
