Symptoms

In classic eProcurement pages, an epro requester cannot modify a requisition that has been sourced to a PO which is working correctly. However the issue is, in Fluid eProcurement pages, when an epro requester chooses to modify a requisition that has been sourced, the system allows it even though ALLOW_CHANGE_REQUEST is set to DISABLED in eProcurement -> Administer eProcurement -> Maintain System and Roles -> Assign Role Actions to Role.

STEPS
Setup for 1st test in Classic eProcurement Pages

A) Change VP1 to have Full Auth to All Requesters access in User Profiles (Setup Financials/Supply Chain -> Common Definitions -> User Preferences -> Define User Preferences -> Procurement -> Requisitions Authorizations)

Steps for 1st test in Classic eProcurement Pages

A) Search for a sourced requisition (PO created) in ePro Manage Reqs (eProcurement -> Manage Requisitions)

Set up for 2nd 2nd test in Fluid eProcurement Pages

A) Sign on as CADAMS and create a requisition (Employee Self Service Fluid Menu -> eProcurement -> Create Requisition)
