Restrict who can create Pending POs

The permission to approve and create pending POs is applied at the same time, but we run a centralized purchasing dept. Most users can see and approve pending POs, but not create. That creation could be limited to the PO admins group.

    We have the same senario as above. We have centralized purchasing and do not want PO approvers to have access to create POs. Having these functions separately assigned would help our internal control structure and SOX compliance. This is a high priority item for our auditors both internal and external.

    Agree. This is also a challenge for us. We do not want the users that approve purchase orders to have the ability to create them also.
