Is there a way to bypass the workflow in Memorized Vendor Bill Approval?

edited Nov 4, 2022 4:56PM in Ask A Guru 3 comments

I have 2 memorized vendor bills that when created each month always go to Pending Approval even though my Accounting Preference is set to Approved for vendor bills.

To complicate matters, We have a Vendor Bill Approval workflow that is set to run ONLY if "User : Supervisor Is Not Empty" yet the workflow still runs with the user = -System' and context is Bulk Processing.

So my question:

Is there a way to bypass the workflow using either the Context <> Bulk Processing (not listed under the Context selection) or the User <> -System- (-System not a selection under the conditions for User)

I would have thought this to be a very simple fix...
