Approval path setup

[SULLY1]

We have approval paths for requisitions. We would like to bypass approvals for newly generated purchase orders (P43060) but force approvals for purchase order revisions. Is anyone out there doing this? We are having a problem getting this to work. Please share how your order activity rules and processing options are set up. Thanks in advance for you help.

You set up the P4310 processing options to override the next status to bypass approvals however on the revision tab input the status codes for approval.

If that does not work the other option would be to create 2 versions, One where you want to bypass approval use the override next status and the other use the revisions processing option.

Thanks for the reply. I have it set up as you described. I also have two versions one for new p.o.'s and one for revisions. What is happening is that we a line is added and the p.o. is approved and there is more than one approver it sets ALL lines back to the approval status.
