Purchase Order Approval by Branch/plant

Hello we have a problem in getting procurement to work the way we think it should.

We want to implement PO approval by Branch/Plant. In P4311 we have Processing option 26 set to 3, Branch/Plant Route Code.

This works perfectly if there is only 1 BP per PO. However if we raise a PO with multiple Branch/Plants (and so therefore multiple approval routes) the approval code is set to the BP used in the header. The P4311 program completely bypasses the branch/plant detail used in the PO.

In the F4311, the approval route is stored by detail line and approval review is done on a line by line basis so it makes sense to allow different approval routes per line.

We want the approval to be by Branch/Plant in the detail.

Has anybody come across this requirement and if so how did they solve it?.

Thanks
 
Haven't come across this actual requirement, but JDE will tell you it works
as functioned since the approval routing is based on order level and not
detail level... regardless of the branch/Plant you use. If you must do it
that way you would have to modify. thanks, Bobby

Hi Richard
Have you defined Approval code in Br-Plant constants?
I hope you have.
