This message means that the PO needs to be authorised before it can be released. This is set up on the Company screen in the Distribution - Purchasing tab. Here you can also find the ‘Allow Manual Update of Authorization Routing’ option. Thank you Roel. That’s clear now. I think the last part of the information message is misleading as to where to find these settings.
In the demo Apps 10 system logged in as IFSAPP, I am getting the following information message on trying to release a purchase order that has been created directly without use of a purchase requisition. After clicking on OK, the purchase order is not released, remains in status Planned and the Authorization Required box in the header is checked. There is an Authorization rule on the purchase order (PO_RULE) and on checking that rule the amount on the purchase order is within the release amount What are the possible causes for the purchase order not being released and how can this be resolved? Check the Authorization tab on the PO. Do you have any lines in there? There was a line in the Authorization tab which I have authorized and now the PO could be released. Is there a setting in the rule which means it has to be authorized at line level before being released at header level?
Could you share a picture showing the definition of the purchase order authorization rule
