Last updated on SEPTEMBER 28, 2022

Goal

If an Invoice is entered in Oracle Payables, and initiated for workflow approval, notifications are sent to the approvers setup in Approvals Management Engine (AME) rules.  Once the invoice is approved, what would cause the invoice workflow status to be updated to Needs Reapproval?

• Would changing the invoice amount trigger reapproval?
• Would discarding a line and adding a new line cause approval to reinitiate?
• What fields need to be changed to cause Workflow Status to change from Workflow Approved to Needs Reapproval?
• Why does the Workflow status not change to Requires Approval or Needs Reapproval after making changes in an already approved transaction?
