How can I restrict the Requesters of Purchase Orders?

ApprovalMax allows restricting Requesters in terms of what data they can see and work with when creating Purchase Orders.
​

For example, access rights for the creation of Purchase Orders can be configured so that a particular Requester is allowed to select only particular Suppliers.
​
​

This is how you can restrict a Requester:
​

  • Click on the Matrix icon in the first step of the workflow to open the Requester matrix.
    ​

  • Add the Requesters who will be allowed to create Purchase Orders (if not yet added).
    ​

  • Specify the restriction criteria, such as: Supplier, Account (GL Code), Tracking Codes, Item, Tax, Branding, etc.
    ​

  • In some cases, you can choose whether the field should be mandatory or optional for Requesters to fill in during Purchase Order creation.
    ​


​

Please note: The fields Supplier and Branding are always mandatory.

  • Click on DONE and save your changes.
    ​

Please note: You can use the checkbox for "Allow to create new Contacts" together with the Supplier selection from the drop-down list.
