Hi,

How to define change order reapproval rules in Purchasing documents.

Scenario:
Every time we have been creating Purchase orders and send them for respected approvals. But from last few days due to some reasons we have amended the PO's and send them for approval. but may manager was not intrested to approve the same PO for second time. he has given permission to setup our hierarchy to approve the PO by system itself ,if the PO tolerence is varies between 5%. so i red somewhere there is one process belongs to the scenario which is called change order re approval .
Please anyone can advice

thanks
satya.

Hi satya
If you use R12, so no problem with that. you can use the change order function in purchasing module.

Purchasing -> Setup -> Tolerances and routing -> change order

You can create Auto-Approval Tolerances for order, agreement or release according to some attributes (percentage or days).

When you update in need by date & press approve, according to setup in change order the PO become approved without send to managers again. I think it'll help you.

But if you use R11, you will update the workflow. you can search on metalink for that note 458715.1

Thanks
Hisham
