Assigning Approval Unit Hierarchies to Scenarios

After you have defined your Approval Unit, you can assign the Approval Unit Hierarchy to a specific Scenario, Year and Period combination. Only Scenarios that have Approvals Enabled in metadata are available for selection.

Note:

You assign only one Approval Unit Hierarchy to a specific Scenario/Year/Period. You cannot assign multiple Approval Unit Hierarchies to the same Scenario/Year/Period.
