We have a case where we have forwarded the PO authorization to a person with lower Max Amount for PO. This person to is able to authorize even having that lover limit.

Is it so that, if the original Authorization Step is assigned to Person A, he forwards the authorization to Person B, and Person B tries to Authorize. Then IFS checks the amount against the step in the Routing Template? That means, it still checks against Person A’s max amount and allow person B to do Authorize.

 

Hi ​@AvePetriK , As per the help documentation, “If the authorization step you want to forward to another person requires an authorizer role you can only forward this step to an authorizer with sufficient authorization limit.”.

I have checked in 24R2 SU10 and observed that the authorization cannot be forwarded to a user when user’s ‘Max Full Amount for PO’ amount (defined in Purchase authorization basic data window) < PO amount.

Can you explain more on the authorization routing option in your rule and more details of user limits. 

Kind regards,

Sayuri.


Hi, customer has complicated authorization rules with routing templates and Authorization limits per Organization Position. It seems that forward gives the same rules or routing templates to recipient, than forwarder have. It seems that personal purchase authorizers limits are not used in forward or routing templates allows forward and authorization
