My Approver is Out, How Can I Get My Requisitions Approved?

If you approver did not forward their work to an alternate department approver, you can either wait until your approver returns, or contact your DSA to have your approver changed.  You will have to re-save and re-submit requisitions entered prior to your approver being changed.

My Approver Was Recently Changed, But My Requisitions Still Aren't Routing to My New Approver.

Bridges security issued the resolution below in an email to all DSAs on 7/11/07:

There has been a change to the FI Setup procedure, in ARS, for Requisitions. Due to changes resulting from the Department Support Organization (DSO) project, the data that needs to be input has changed. Prior to this change DSAs have input the value 'UFLOR' in the Requisition Chartfield Defaults > Business Unit field on the Requisitions tab; this is now an invalid value. UFLOR is a GL Busunit, Requisitions is looking for a P.O. Busunit. The P.O. Busunit is usually, but not always, the first four digits of the DeptID. Having the 'UFLOR' value in this field results in a failure of the nightly sync which processes the FI Setup request; the request is not processed and stays in an 'Implementation Pending' state. This will automatically resolve if the correct value is used in the Business Unit field.  From now on please use the four digit P.O. Busunit in the Requisition Chartfield Defaults > Business Unit field to avoid delays in getting a user's setup implemented. If you have any questions please contact Jim Rauch, 352-273-1391. Thanks for your cooperation and have a good day.
