Permissions for Supervisor Approval checkbox on PO?
We'd like to give permission to a custom role to be able to change the value of the "Supervisor Approval" checkbox on Purchase Orders. Admins are able to do this, but we want to add that permission to a custom role. Only thing is I can't find the permission.
Background, for anyone who is interested, is that we're trying to kick drop-ship/special order POs into the native NetSuite PO approval flow (i.e. not a custom workflow). The issue is that when these POs are auto-generated from the sales order, the Supervisor Approval is automatically set to True because the Purchase Requestor field is null.
