If you are working vendor invoices and you want to use approval workflow you have a few options for how the system will find the person to approve. One option would be nice if you could go back to the original purchase order and use the orderer (preparer) or the requester. This is an example of a modification to do this. In the example a new participant provider is created which will allow the workflow to be configured to use the purchase order fields.

Here is a quick overview.

AX2012 R3 CU11.

In a follow-up post we’ll have a look at what was needed to make the modification.
