How can I route a purchasing document for approval based on the requester's supervisory hierarchy?

As a procurement application administrator, you can set up an approval rule condition for a purchasing document based on the requester's supervisory hierarchy. This way, when procuring goods or services, you can enforce different approval policies for different organizations.

You can use the name or user name of the top ten supervisors on the requester's supervisory hierarchy. Use this attribute to set up an approval rule condition, where the top-level supervisor's name identifies the organization. To do this, use the Manage Purchasing Document Approvals task. Find the task in the Setup and Maintenance work area, Procurement offering, Approval Management functional area.
