BPM for PO Approvals

Here's an example of what we've used for this.



1. Use the PO.Update BO

2. Condition status is "POHeader.ApprovalStatus of the changed row
is equal to the "P" value

3. Action is "sends e-mail synchronously based on the 'PO Needs
Approval' template"

a. Template = "PO #<PO/> for dollar amount <Dollar/> created by
<Buyer/> on <Date/> to supplier <Vendor/> needs approval. "

b. Fill in To:/From:/Subject:

Subject: [Vantage] BPM for PO Approvals



My manager had created some BAMs to determine if a purchase order were
in a pending state and based on the dollar level, send an email to the
next approval level that a PO was in the queue. The only thing he didn't
realize was that the ApprovedAmount is updated "after" it has been
approved. I suspect a BPM may be a better approach. Does anyone have a
BPM group for PO approvals that would do the trick?

Thanks,
