• Fourth’s Purchasing & Inventory release 4.6.98 includes new functionality. Specifically:Introduction of Approval Groups, allowing for role-based approvals
• Ability to split items from a requisition when auto processing

Release Date: 14th (EMEA) / 17nd October (USA) 2019

Reason for the Change

Role-Based Approvals

With the growing number of users and change in responsibilities, there is a need for an Approval Group against which multiple users can be assigned. When an item which requires review, approval or final approval, it can be actioned by any user who is assigned to the Approval Group.

Split Requisition on Auto Create & Transmit

When the Auto Create & Transmit option was introduced, there was no way to partially process a requisition – it was either processed or not. With the ability to split items from a requisition when auto processing, there is a possibility to process items that could be ordered and split the remaining ones into a separate requisition for further review.
