Reproducing the Issue

  1. Access the Self-Services Overview view from the Home work center.
  2. Click on 'My Request'.

Cause

The standard system behavior allows users who create the Goods and Service Receipts to have the access to post it.

Resolution

When an employee is given access to create the Goods and Service Receipts in the Self Services view of Home work center, the same employee will be able to post the document. By default, employee who created Goods and Service Receipts document will be having access to post it as well, as per the standard system behavior.
