PO Approval Notification to Originator

Hello,
When a PO is created and is forwarded on for approval, when it is finally approved does the originator or Buyer receive an email stating its approved ? Does this functionality exists in Oracle & if Yes, what setups are required to enable the same.
Thanks,
Shilpa.

Hi,
Your question : Is this option available in 11i also or in R12 only ?
Ans : Yes available in both 11i and R12..
Q: Do we need to do anything with the PO Approval Workflow to get this notification ?
Ans : Hope you have done appropriate setup in Document Type (Purchasing>Setup>Purchasing>Document Types)..
PO WF is basically derived from the Document type. In the Document type attribute e.g. say Purchase Order Standard Approval Workflow is normally set as : PO Approval and Workflow Startup Process as : PO Approval Top Process..
we believe below are the prerequisite for WF to send mail for approval...
- Make sure notification mailer is up and running
- WF background process is scheduled
Kind Regards,

  • Deleted PO Approval Notification Accidently, now cant approve Draft. (2007)

    My Customer accidently deleted an approval notification. The PO displayes in the Document Drafts report, but when the user drills down into the draft to add it, they get a message: "An authorization for this document has allready been sent. Document can not be added unless this authorization process is completed."
    I have two users who can approve this documet, with a required segnature of 1 user.
    Any suggestions?
    thanks

    How? That was my question. How do you get an approval message back after your accidently deleted it.
    The answer below helped. I wasnt awar the entering user could go into the Send portion of the Message / Alert overview window, and re-send the message.
    Thank you for your response, and taking the time to help!
    Sincere regards,

  • How to modify message or subject in po approval notification

    sir,
    please tell how to modify message or subject in po approval notification process ,
    new database item should get displayed in either message or subject
    regards

    Hi, you'd have to load the .emlx file for it into something like Text Wrangler, modify it & save it, I think the only way in Mail would be to Forward it to yourself with an edited Subject line.

  • Modify PO approval notification

    All,
    I need to add some extra information to the PO approval notification.
    I have downloaded the PO Approval item but I am not sure which

    I have identified the message as "PO Approve".
    I have added a new attribute called "Requisition Number" to "PO Approval Process" and used it
    in "Approve PO" message. I have also modified the procedure PO_POAPPROVAL_INIT1.SetPOHdrAttributes
    to retrieve the requisition number of a PO and setting the attribute of "Requisition Number" with it.
    Then, in the Approve PO message body I have added "Requisition Number: &REQUISITION_NUMBER" in workflow
    builder and saved it in to the target database.
    But, the approval workflow notification message is not picking my requisition number.
    I am not sure how to actually modify the message of the notification to use the
    newly added Requisition number attribute in it.
    Can any please give me some direction here?
    Thanks.

  • Customize PO Approval Notification OA page

    Want to add Cost center, Promised date columns to this table.
    Please let me know how to do it.
    Thanks

    Find the PO OAF embedded region in the notification. Then you need to personalize that region and add your required columns assuming the attached VO has those values. Otherwise you might have to do VO substitution also.

  • How to route PO Approval Notification to Requestor instead of PO Preparer?

    Dear All,
    For PR Approval notification, it is possible to modify the workflow slightly so that the approval notification will be sent to the Requester instead of the Preparer.
    For PO Approval notification (PO Approved), is it possible to route the notification to the Requestor (PR Requestor) instead of the PO Preparer?
    Thanks a lot!
    Ken

    Ken,
    This may not work even if you pass the requester_user_name to this function. Requester name, as I see it, is specifically introduced for the temp labor functionality and not for the normal lines (like goods or expenses). Looks like that is the reason why this is not working when you have changed the workflow, as this attribute is set only if the line is Temp Labor along with others.
    You may have to introduce new activity (at the beginnig) to set the value to your own attribute selecting the requestor name from the distributions for the entire PO and use it in the notification or the function suggested here.
    Thanks

  • PO attachments in PO approval notification

    All, is it possible to display the PO attachments/ their information in the PO approval notification itself?
    If so, please tell me where to start.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    If possible download standard POAPPRV (PO Approval) workflow.
    Copy PO Approval Top Process to create
    <YourCompany>PO Approval Top Process eg. xxPO Approval Top Process .
    Inside the process you can similarly create new custom sub process and packages by copying standard packages and include your custom requirements.
    This way you can keep standard code untouched. However in future you need to keep track of those changes for while Patch and Upgrades.
    Thanks,

  • PO approval notification email issue

    Hi,
    When user try to approve PO, it sends email notification to manager who has correct approval athority. Manager can see the approval notification email but notification doesn't have PO Line details section (section which has PO Line information). How to fix it?
    Thanks
    Vijay

    Hi,
    To confirm that the patches are resp, can you check the file modified dates POXVCOMS.pls and POXVCOMB.pls? (To know the path on the box run diagnostic apps check for PO module and look for these file names).
    If they match with the patch application dates, then you might have to open a SR and get the fix from Oracle

  • PO Approval Notification to multiple users

    Dear All,
    Currently in our setup PO approval notification is working fine.
    I want to send the final approval notification to other audience who are not there in workflow hierarchy.
    can anyone guide on this?
    Regards
    Deepali

    I assume you want to send an FYI notification.
    You can either customize the po workflow to add the fYI notification or you can write an alert that fires when a PO is approved.
    Hope this helps,

  • Purchase Order Approval Notifications and Multiple Currencies

    All,
    If I have a user who creates a requisition in EUR and then submits the requisition for approval to someone who has a default currency of USD, the workflow notification will show the value of the requisition in both EUR and USD. This is because the ICX: Preferred Currency profile option has been set at the user level.
    However, this does not work for purchase order approval notifications, just requisitions. This makes my management unhappy. Oracle Support indicates this is an enhancement request. However, I have a difficult time believing there is not something in the Oracle apps that allows this functionality in the PO Notification. We are on 11.5.10.2.
    Many thanks,
    Jeremy

  • Add PO additional attachments links to approval Notification

    Hello,
    I have a requirement: when a PO approval notification is sent, I need to add another section in Notification to list URL Links of all po attachmnets. I am not talking about sending attachments in the email. My requirement is on notification itself which is viewed from worklist. When the user clicks on the attachment link, the corresponding PO attachment should open up.
    I am not sure how to achieve this, the POAPPRV is customized and we are adding customized header and lines in approval notification. But I am not sure how to add a URL link. Please help.
    -ARN

    As far as I know, you don't need OFA extension.
    Can you open the workflow in Workflow Developer and verify that the requisition details are populated using the PO_WF_REQ_NOTIFICATION?
    Depending on your version, Oracle may be using a different package. Find that package and make some simple change to verify.
    Hope this helps
