changing approval process

[Former Member]

Is there any way of changing the point at which the approval stage arises? Our issue is that the Sales Order is not changeable after it's been approved, so perhaps we should change it so the approval process only comes at the invoicing stage.

Groovy,

The simple answer would be in the Approval Templates .... Document Tab you can chose the document the Approval Process should fire on.

It ultimately depends on what functionality you have in the Approval process.

If you have specific details about the Approval requirement I can certainly take a look

thanks Suda, so it looks like the person who set up the approval template can simply uncheck the Sales Order box and check AR invoice.

When I attended a recent SAP User Group I mentioned how useful the members of this forum are. Thanks again.

I have a question, though.

Why can't I change the approval template after i've inserted it?

It goes grey, and I can't change anything. I've just created it, so it's not that it's in use....

Hello,

You can go to approval templates setup --> tab documents, stages and terms can be editable but all approved SO will be similar like SO posting without approval, do you want the SO is changeable after approved ? I think you could not do that. Just edit the SO in the delivery note since SO has no transaction to G/L yet.
