Workflow: Transition to Posted not allowed: Purchase invoice does not have the expected state Approved

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 339

Dear all,


I have following problem in AX2012. I set up an invoice approval workflow for vendor journal invoices. In one scenario only one approval step with a "designated approver" is defined. The work item for the approval is created and the work item can be approved. However the invoice cannot be posted because of this error "Transition to Posted not allowed: Purchase invoice does not have the expected state Approved". How can I make the invoice to have the status "Approved" once the work item of the designated approver is approved?

Many thanks

    Hi Fjorela, we experienced the same issue today. We are using D365. We were able to solve the issue by doing the following. Cancel the workflow, reset invoice status, change invoice type to "non PO," click "save," change invoice type to "PO," click "save," then "submit." This

    worked on two occasions today. Hope this helps those who are currently experiencing the same issue. Thanks.
