Authorization, Release (PO22.1)
Use Authorization, Release (PO22.1) to review and release all the unreleased purchase orders for a particular buyer. You can release orders that exceed any of the buying limits for the buyer or vendor or price agreement. Buying limits include maximum purchasing amounts and minimum and maximum quantity limits.
More Information
These limits are defined for the buyer in PO04.1 (Buyer) and for the vendor in PO10.1 (PO Vendor). If a purchase order line includes a warning that indicates a limit was exceeded, you can use the Message Review subform to look up the specific limit that was exceeded. Since you can also limit buyers to purchasing items within a particular purchasing class, you can use this form to approve and release any items a buyer purchases outside his or her limits.
To display the unreleased orders, inquire on the buyer code. To release an order that is displayed, select the Change form action and the Release line action. An order must include at least one line to be released.
