Vendor Bill Status Field is Inline, even though Bills are not routed for approvals?

edited Jan 15, 2026 2:52PM in Ask A Guru 6 comments

We use Suiteapprovals for PO approvals. THe vendor bill approval workflow is turned off, and the bills are not set to route for approval. The status field is available to set as 'Pending Approval' when the bill is created, but when editing the bill, the status field is unavailable to edit.

I checked the scripted record, and ensured:

All workflows are off.

The form sets the field display type=Normal

No scripts are running on this field.

When I added a workflow to set the field display value as Normal - didn't work.

Does anyone know why the 'Status' field on vendor bills is not editable after 'Create'?
