I have setup Approval workflow for purchase quote
approver type : Chain approver
but I found sth abnormal during tests with user
there are 3 users involved
- UserA : approval purchase limit = 2,500 ; Approver = B
- UserB : approval purchase limit =100 000; Approver = C
- UserC : unlimited purchase approval
scenario 1 : A create PQ for 3,000; as it is within the authorized threshold for B, normally, C does not receive the request
But now even amount is within the authorized threshold for B; and B approves the request
PQ is still in 'Pending Approval' which is awaiting approval from the approver 2
scenario 2 : B creates his request 20,000; as < 100,000; normally B can Release / validate PQ without approval
but now he is not able to Release as BC asks to send Approval request
we have for PO the same workflow and it works well
which mean B can Release or validate PO without approval
Attention ; knowing that PO and PQ have the same approver parameter – Chain approver and the flows are almost standard (created from templates)
Do you have some ideas regarding these two issues ?
thank you in advance
