Resubmitting Records for Approval
Take note of the following when resubmitting records for approval:
-
You can manually resubmit rejected records only.
-
The transaction creator and users with access, except the current approver, can update and resubmit the record.
-
The user who originally submitted the record can't be an approver.
For SuiteApprovals version 2026.2.2 or later, the following permission requirements apply:
-
To resubmit records for approval, your role must have at least Create permission for each applicable supported transaction type. For information about updating role permissions, see Creating or Customizing Roles for SuiteApprovals.
-
To resubmit a rejected Engineering Change Order (ECO) for approval, your role must have at least Edit permission for the ECO record. If your role has Create permission only, create a new ECO record instead.
