Approve an order and check on order

Review another person's submitted draft and check the approved outstanding quantity.

For supervisors

Sarah Hughes is signed in with only the Supervisor role and a recent security check. Sam has already submitted Draft 2 for one box of M8 bolts under the reviewed approval rule. The separate calibration order and 150-piece queue request remain unchanged.

Read these instructions on any device. Watch or practise a chapter on a desktop or laptop, with a desktop or mobile application layout. Demonstrations use sample data and simulated scanners.

  5. Check the outstanding commitment

  6. Read the approved line

    Read the approved line.

    Open M8-ZP and check HP-PO-01002 in the order history. Physical receipts remain the source product's responsibility.

Watch or practise this chapter

Approval creates a commitment. It does not confirm that the supplier was told or that stock arrived. Follow the separate sending workflow and use StoresFlow for physical receipts. Never repeat an uncertain approval under a new action identity.
