Supplier Hierarchy Change Approval Process

Supplier Hierarchy Change Approval Process

The default change approval process for hierarchy of a supplier is a one-step approval process. The process begins when a business user updates the hierarchy of a supplier.
When an internal user attempts to update hierarchy of a supplier, the action is sent to a manager for review.
