How to change the approval policy when the bill is already scheduled for approval?
There are a couple of reasons that raise the urgency to change your approval policy. be it for bills, POs transactions, or credit notes:
- A member of your company left, so you need to replace and remove the approver, thus affecting the approval policy
- A member is accidentally tagged to the wrong approval policy
However, making changes to the approval policy might be a bit more complex when the bill is already scheduled for approval.
So what should you do when this happens?
Here are 2 steps to follow:
- Change or remove user from the approval policy
- Return the bill to draft to re-select the approval policy
Change or remove user from the approval policy
