Example

The Approval Title User Preferred Sequence does not mean that all users are required for approval and/or that User 1 should approve first before User 2 and so on.

Preferred sequence means lower numbers have the highest priority in this approval title. In the example above, in the absence of User 1 (because User 1 has the preferred sequence of 1), User 3 is the next in line in the approval process because User 3 has the higher priority having the preferred sequence of 2.

Using the approval process in Scenario 1, create a requisition with Header Org = 1 with three (3) requisition lines.

Screen Behavior:

When User 2 tries to query the requisition on the View Purchase Requisition Status (PPQRQSTS) screen, Costpoint displays the following error message: “Your user ID does not have access to the Requisitioner’s Organization: [Org ID].” This is because only Users 1 and 3 can view and approve the requisition. User 2 is not authorized for the requisitioner’s org 1.
