Hello,
I cannot get my workflow and sub workflows to process without generating the error "workflow approval status cannot be changed".
I cannot put all the logic into one workflow because there are multiple people who must delegate to colleagues who cannot approve ALL their approvals. I can separate delegation through specific workflows.
In our vendor disbursement workflow, person 1 can approve up to $500,000. Person 1 often delegates approvals to Person 2 for values up to $50,000.
I am trying to use sub workflows that handle this logic, see the attached...
When I do this, I get the following error.
Here are my questions:
1. What is the point of sub workflows if I can't get multiple approvals on the same vendor payment?
2. How can I resolve this scenario if I cannot use sub workflows?
Note, I have also tried activation logic on different workflows but vendor disbursement journal names are configured to use a specific workflow. See attached.
So even though I've set different vendor disbursement workflows to run with different activation logic, the workflow 0013 always runs.
I'm starting to run out of ideas here. Please help.
Thanks, p
