Fetch Authorization Rule

Explanation

Use this function when you want to check if the purchase order reconciles with any authorization rule. The authorization routing template is normally retrieved from this authorization rule when you try to release the purchase order.

Prerequisites

System Effects

If no criteria for a purchase order authorization rule are fulfilled, no authorization routing template for that rule is retrieved.

When the criteria for a purchase order authorization rule are fulfilled, the authorization routing template for that rule is retrieved to the purchase order and shown in the Purchase Order/Authorization tab. If there are several purchase order authorization rules that are applicable for the purchase order, the one with the highest priority is chosen.

The Purchase Order/Authorization tab displays the information regarding both the purchase order authorization rule that is used and the purchase order maximum authorized amount.

The command  is unavailable for selection when an authorization template is retrieved.
