Approved checkbox on Purchase Order greyed out

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

What would cause the Approved checkbox on the logistics tab of a Purchase Order to be 'greyed out'?

My customer has a few users who cannot update this field. I have tried to replicate the issue locally on my database using various scenarios but cannot replicate the issue.

What might be causing this?

Thanks

The status is unapproved. The Approved checkbox is unticked (but greyed out).

Hai!

Please verify this..

1.Open Admin->Sys init-> Documen settings

2. select Per Document tab.

3. select Purcahse order from the list of docs.

4. check the Purcahse Order Approved

5. The Problem for gray out is user Authorization.

6. If, the first 4 steps done there will not need for Authorization to enable the field.

7. If, u want to enable the field, give authorization to sales A/R -> Document Confirmation.

This can be done only if u r not using approval procedure for PO.If, u use then PO will save as unproved only and check box will gray out.

Hi!

I think this is obviuos.

You can not change Document when it's approved or unapproved.

Thanga - you are correct thanks.

Authorization -> sales A/R -> Document Confirmation.

HI,

It greys out when there is no authorization. Give authorization and check back.

Hope this helps you.
