A specific requirement from a client is to involve the activated Authorization Assigning Rule in the Posting Proposal and the status of the same to be “AwaitAuth” where the Finance users will authorize the invoice postings based on the code part combinations in the assigning rule.
However, the Posting Authorization is set to “Automatic Authorization” in the PO Matching in the company setup. Due to this, all the PO based invoices are receiving a status of “Auth” in the Posting Proposal and the assigning rule is not being considered.
The reason for this requirement is to validate those invoices where expense accounts on which period allocation is required are reviewed by Finance Manager before approval and voucher creation and all other invoices to go directly in “Auth” status and can be posted by finance users without any authorizations.
Is there a way to include the assigning rule in the Posting Proposal and the status of the same to be “AwaitAuth” by not changing the company setup?
