Potential Bug regarding Workflows and Suitelets
Hello,
I noticed a weird behavior when using a Workflow for the Approval process for Vendor Bills.
To get to the last state of Approved in the Workflow, the transition is either the user hits the "Approve" button or a custom Field on the VB is set to "Approved".
The custom field is only update-able through a Suitelet we created that basically changes the value of this field to "Approved" and the transition moves the Vendor Bill to the final state and sets it to approved and posts.
The issue is that everytime we use the Suitelet to Approve, the VB goes to the last state, but it Posts to a locked period if the Invoice date is on or before the locked period. Using the Button posts correctly to the next available unlocked period.
