PO Approval

I was testing some PO Approval function and I am set up as the approver with a limit of $0. The user puts in a PO and gets a notification that I need to approve the PO. But when I go to PO Approval my name does not show in the Buyer ID drop down. I have someone else check it and they can see my name and the PO’s I need to approve. I am puzzled…what did I miss?

I am set up as an authorized user for myself and the person submitting the PO.

Are you set up as Default Buyer for yourself or set as inactive in Buyer Maint?


yes I am the default buyer

maybe I am looking at the PO Approval wrong…
When i open the PO Approval…am I looking under my name or the Buyer who sent the PO?
THis is strange too the Buyer shows set but in PO Approval they are not.

You should be looking under your name in the PO Approval form.

Are you in the Buyers Authorized Users list?

Yes I am an authorized Buyer under that buyer. I don’t even see my name listed in the the Buyer ID on PO Approval…these are the only names I see. I have added myself to a lot of buyers.

I figured it out…It was a dumb mistake on my part. I had 2 Buyer IDs…one form years ago when I used to work here…now I am back and I have all new accounts…so my old buyer ID was set as the Authorized user…UGH.

Now I need to figure out why my BPM quite working…:slight_smile:
