Reproducing the Issue
Prerequisite: You set up an approval process for a sales quote that has a condition to be defined by sales unit.
- Go to the Sales work center.
- Go to the the Sales Quotes view.
- Click on New.
- Enter any account.
- Enter sales unit ABC-YYY (ABC stands for the name of the sales unit and YYY for the number of the specific unit).
- Click on Save and Open.
- Click on Actions and then Submit.
Result: The sales quote status is: Approval not Necessary.
Cause
In the sales quote approval process, you used a condition for "matches pattern" of the sales unit. The sales units in your system are of format ABC-YYY, but in your approval process, the string to compare with "matches pattern" is ABC.
Resolution
In your approval process condition, change the string to compare with "matches pattern" to ABC-YYY* (ABC stands for the name of the sales unit and YYY for the number of the specific unit).
