Voting in Payables Invoice Approval and how to configure Auto-Approval - R12
We're investigating the new AP Invoice Approval workflow in R12 against our currently heavily customised version in R11 (integrated with AME).
Our current version uses AME and voting (first responder wins) during the approval process (at header level). Can this be achieved in R12 without customisations? For example, invoice XYZ has 9 approvers defined in AME, the workflow will then send all 9 approvers an approval request and the document approval status will become the response of the first approver that replies. From what I can of the new workflow only a single approver will be notified (I'm basing this on the w/f notification which doesn't have the 'expand roles' check box checked).
