Setup a reapproval rule for purchase orders without using change management functionality (workflow)

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 63

If specific fields are changed on a confirmed purchase order, standard D365 update logic will reset the approval status back to “Approved”. If some other fields are updated on a confirmed purchase order, the approval status remains “Confirmed”.

Within the purchase policy "Reapproval rule for purchase orders” you can specify the fields, that don't require a confirmed purchase order to be manually reapproved. There are some cases when users need to change something on purchase orders without approving it all over again.

However, it seems that in standard D365 it only works if the change management for purchase orders is enabled and you configure a purchase order workflow.

Is there a way in D365 to apply a "Reapproval rule for purchase orders” if no workflow is configured? It would be a great way to define the purchase order header / purchase order line fields that require / don't require an approval status update.

I recently created a D365 Idea for it, please vote for it if there is currently no way to set it up as described:

    Hi Markus Kreuter,

    I don't think this is a feasible solution.

    Because, re-approval flow is required because org wants to put some control over process.

    If there is no WF, there wont be control as per OOB, hence there is no purpose to have a re-approval flow, system will auto approve the same.
