IFS App 10 Purchase Order- Different authorizations needed for ‘Part Order Line’ & ‘No Part Order Line’

Hello IFS Community 

I am looking to create different authorization rules and limits based on whether a purchase order is ‘Part Order Lines’ or ‘No Part Order Lines’. I have well defined rules in place however they are based on total purchase order amounts and do not differentiate currently. My suspicion is that its overall value due to the fact that a PO can have both part and no part order lines however there may be a work around. Has anyone overcome this challenge before or something similar? All suggestions appreciated.

If I am not wrong, such a scenario should be taken place on Purchase Requisition only, not Purchase Order. in other words, you can simply accomplish it at Purchase Requisition Rule level.

 

Thank you.

Hi Ronhu, 

Thank you for replying. The challenge with authorizing on requisitions is that you are just authorizing the purchase requisition line value as opposed to a PO where you are authorizing the total value of a purchase order. So for a companies DOA compliance we would ideally have that on the purchase order. However as the company has different indirect spend and direct spend authorization requirements, this has created the challenge. 

For our company we have authorization on the purchase requisition lines and then enforced purchase order change orders so that if the dollar amount of the PO is changed it requires an additional approval.
