Symptom
A Purchase Order that is relevant for flexible workflow is created with an enhanced limit item type. Upon saving the Purchase Order, a workflow request is triggered to an approving manager and the document shows in a status 'awaiting approval'. After the document has been approved, the user subsequently increases the 'Overall limit' in the Purchase Order item, but after this value change is saved no new workflow is triggered.
Environment
- SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Reproducing the Issue
- Run the APP 'Manage Purchase Orders'.
- Create a Purchase Order, relevant for flexible workflow with a limit item.
- Maintain and 'Expected value' and an 'Overall value'.
- Save the PO.
- Approving manager approves the PO from 'My inbox'.
- Change the PO in the 'Manage Purchase Orders' APP and increase the 'Overall Limit'.
- Save the PO.
- The approval status of the PO remains unchanged.
Cause
The 'Overall limit' value defined in the item has no influence on the item/header net value, therefore the approval status remains unchanged when it is changed.
Resolution
Making a change to the 'Expected value' in a Limit PO, would update the document net value and this would trigger the approval process again.
