Symptoms

A position hierarchy has been end-dated. But when submitting a Purchase Order (PO) for approval and invoking the list of values for the Approval Path, the LOV still displays the end-dated position hierarchy.
The expected behavior is that an expired position hierarchy would not be displayed in the LOV for the Approval Path.

The issue can be reproduced at will with the following steps:
1. From the Purchasing responsibility, navigate to Setup -> Personnel -> Position Hierarchy.
2. Query up the Position Hierarchy and verify that the hierarchy is end-dated, as illustrated in the following screenshot:

4. Create a PO and choose Approve.
5. In the approval form invoke the LOV for the Approval Path.
6. As illustrated in the following screenshot the end-dated position hierarchy is still being displayed:
