This activity will automatically add authorizers to the supplier invoice in a posting proposal company without any manual intervention. There are several ways to add authorizers for the posting lines. All posting lines must have authorizers who will authorize the postings before the invoice is finally posted.
If authorization is done in IFS/Purchasing, then the authorizers can be inherited from the purchase order connected to the invoice. To inherit authorizers from IFS/Purchasing, the Inherit Authorizer(s) From Purchase option should be enabled on the Invoice| Supplier Invoice Workflow sub tab in the Company window. When the option is disabled, or when no authorized purchase order exists for the invoice, then the authorizers are automatically assigned based on the rules in the Authorizer Assigning Rule window. It is possible to use different rules depending on the invoice amount, suppliers involved, invoice recipients, and code parts. When the rule is valid, the routing rule connected to the assigning rule will be used to add authorizers to the invoice.
The sequence numbers for the authorizers are created in tens like 10, 20, 30. This makes it easy to manually add an authorizer in an already existing sequence.
Authorizers will be automatically added to the supplier invoice.
