Hello,
We received a question from our auditor today regarding if approvers in workflow can make changes to a batch without having to resubmit.
I went into a company batch this evening in Dynamics and was able to change the date, account number, amount, description, and reference and was able to save each without ever rejecting/taking the entry out of the workflow approval queue.
I feel like I remember that in the past you could change the date without resubmitting, but any other change would cause you to reject the batch and have to resubmit. Are these settings potentially company specific or was there some change to the approvers abilities that I’m just not aware of?
This poses a very significant risk for us to show this to the auditors because we currently do not have any reporting available or practice in place to review these audit trails before posting. Is there any way that we can change the workflow so that you cannot change anything besides the date without it forcing you to reject the batch and resubmit? Or if not, is there additional reporting that we can get out of the system of what changes are made between submitting a batch and posting of the batch without having to go into each individual entry?
Any prioritization of this investigation would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
