Approval of purchase orders

To approve a purchase order, a monetary approval limit must be set that is equal to or greater than the total cost of the purchase order. Your system administrator sets monetary limits for each user, and can specify that purchase requisitions be approved before any of their items can be assigned to purchase orders.

Your system administrator can specify bypassing the validation of revisions to contracts that are associated with purchase orders. If the system administrator sets this option, purchase orders can be approved by any person in that group. If the Bypass Contract Revision on PO Approval check box does not show on the PO tab of the Purchase Orders application, contact your system administrator.

After a purchase order is approved, most of the fields cannot be edited. You can create a revision of the purchase order and edit the fields in the revision.
