Present pop-up to user on save of purchase requisition

[Hilsbos, Margaret A]

Khurram,

Thanks for your reply. 

Is it possible to require the user to select the release strategy or can it only be determined automatically by classification? In that case can we have a user entered characteristic? We are in 4.6c. I looked for a way for the user to enter a characteristic but didn't see one...do you know if it is possible?

Thanks,

Margaret

Hi, You mean release strategy linking WITH workflow is
this true, if this your setup then you create release
procedure with classification and setup workflow 1 and
assign users(Agents)directly in workflow screen.
 I HAVE created 50 release strategies linking with
workflow and assign to the seperate Agents for
approvals IN PUR_REQ.    
I hope this will help you, if not please write me
back.
