The WorkPlace Purchase Order processing flow begins with the employee or Creator who enters the Purchase Order and Prints the Purchase Order or a Buyer who creates the Purchase Order from Review by Order and Processing. The Purchase Order will either be Released or sent to PO Approval. Once Printed/Submitted, this triggers the eMail notification (dependent on system settings) which is sent to the Approver.
The Approver then logs into the application and loads Purchase Orders into an approval session and approves or disapproves the Purchase Orders and processes the approval session. Once processed, this triggers the eMail notification (dependent on system settings) which is sent to the Purchase Order creator notifying them of the approval status. If disapproved the Purchase Order is returned to the creator for correction or deletion. Approved Purchase Orders are set to a status of Release.
