Purchasing Batch Entry workflow available?

Posted on by 1,455

Our customer imports their PO receivings and wants a workflow approval setup in GP.  I only see Payables Batch Entry as an option. Any ideas?

Thanks!

    Seems like flawed logic to be able to create a workflow for Purchasing Invoices, but be able to circumvent the workflow by putting your Purchasing Invoices in a batch and posting the batch without approval...?

  • RE: Purchasing Batch Entry workflow available?

    Yeah, we have a GL batch approval, receivables batch and payables batch workflow, but nothing as specific as batch for PO receipts.

    Would recommend to make it a product suggestion, as I know we're always adding more workflows with each release......the more votes a suggestion gets the more likely it is to be at least looked at to be included in future releases.

    Also wanted to mention, in the Dexterity programmer's guide, there also is a section on creating custom workflows. Not sure how deep you want to get into it, but it is there.

    Thanks

    They don't want approval on each individual transaction they import - they need it on the batch for PO receipts.
