How do I turn on PO Approval flow? Is there something that is equivalent to turning on requisitions and the flag on RQ01? I was looking through the documentation and I couldn't even find out about RQ01 which we are already using in production for requisitions. It seems like I am overlooking a document somewhere or there isn't a PO approval flow except PO flows I am not interested in like grant management.
Thanks

Jay, if I understand what you're looking for, I don't think it exists, and probably doesn't need to. The reason I say that is because typically POs are not "approved" (since the "approval" process is really done in the requisition phase). In theory, once the purchase is "approved" during requisitioning, the PO just needs to be assigned to a vendor "released" and "issued", which is more of an administrative task than an approval task. You use PO100 batch program to release POs in mass or PO23 one-by-one.
If you wanted to do it from ProcessFlow, I guess you could create a flow which queries on unreleased POs and then either releases them via AGS calls to PO23 (which in effect would be duplicating what PO23 does. Or you could put them into the inbasket of specific buyers for an action against PO23.
Just some ideas, as I'm not really a procurement wizard...

We do have PO100 running on a schedule. The problem with requisitions, if I understand it correcly, is that we do 'X' types for external vendors however we kind of want it to behave as 'I' inventory types. This is one of the reasons that they like to use just PO20 to do some tasks with no requisition tied to it. However when they do this there is no longer a approval record in Lawson(not good). Since I am mostly just a system admin/programmer I am not as familiar with the business logic that Lawson has available and how it really should be being used.

Pl tell me which version we are using, I believe that the PO authority flow does exist in V 12, In this flow the PO status will go to 12 and then onwards to 15 after the digital signature is entered - - -
Is this the flow that you are looking for.

I am not sure what V 12 you are talking about. PO20 is PO20PD 127.1.6. There is some PO approval flow except it looks like it is related to grant management which we are not using.

Jay, he is referring to the Intentia/M3, you are using "Lawson Legacy"/S3.
