Setting Up Approval Authority for a Distribution List

Access the Manage Distribution List form.

Click this button after selecting the approval level authority to display the subform that is associated with the authority level. Depending on the level selected, the system displays one or more of the fields described in this table.

Employee

Enter the address book number of the employee for which you want to attach a distribution list.

Org Chart (organizational chart)

Select this option if you want the system to use an existing organizational chart to determine the approver for the employee that you specify. If you select this option, the organizational structure overrides any other approver setup that you create.

For the system to use the Org Chart option, the employee must be included in a valid organizational structure in the Address Organization Structure Master table (F0150). The structure type must be ES, and the Authorization Required option must be selected for the structure. If you want to set up the organizational structure so that the system routes approvals based on monetary limits, you must set up threshold limits for employees by updating the supervisor's record.

Note: The F0150 table must be mapped to the same data source as the workflow tables.

See JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Tools System Administration Guide.
