Purchase orders approvals, etc
Can I suggest the following enhancements to SD+ for the sake of avoiding problems with PO approvals, etc?
1. Have the check box defaulted where it says to notify the PO requester by email when approving the PO. You currently have to check it. Silly me, but some people aren't selecting the checkbox.
2. Have the ability to add a number of people to the notification of a PO status to a number of people. Either use a PO notification group or have a selection of people (defaulted) that are notified when a PO is completed.
3. Too many people can approve a PO. We have people who need to be able to add vendors, etc, but we don't want them to be able to approve PO's.
4. We want multiple approval people, based on spending authority. Right now we either have to enter each individually or use a single default.
5. We need to be able to select multiple shipping addresses.
6. You should NOT be able to add items to a PO that has been approved! But hey, maybe I can get that new Treo I've been wanting... Let me find that order of printer cartridges and paper that we've ordered... :-)
7. We need to have a History tab for PO's so that we can track who touched a PO when, who tried to slip in more goodies to a PO, who actually approved it.
8. We need to see the "Approved" PO status on a printed copy of a PO. And "Pending" if it's pending.
I had lots of other items in past tickets for creating PO's (more like Quickbooks), as there are too many steps necessary for adding individual items on PO's. There's individual item taxation rates, etc. Too many to mention.
