Approval Procedures

Hi Experts.

I am having an issue with Purchase Order approvals. Below is my scenario; I am not sure if this is how NAV is intended to work. Your help will be highly appreciated

NAV Version
NAV 2013 R2
PO Template Setup

Approval Code Approval Type Document type Limit Type Enabled
P-Order Approver Order Approval Limits Yes

Approval User Setup

User Id Approver Id Purchase Amount Approval Limit Unlimited Approval
Anthony Bill $ 5,000 No
Bill Catherine $ 30,000 No
Catherine David $ 100,000 No
David Yes

PO Scenarios
Scenario NAV Behaviour
Anthony raises a PO for $2,000 and send for approval. PO is approved.

ALL GOOD.
Anthony raises a PO for $10,000 and send for approval. PO goes for approval to Bill.

ALL GOOD.


PROBLEM
Anthony raises a PO for $50,000 and send for approval. PO goes for approval to Bill even when Bills approval limit is $30,000 only.

System generates following approval request entries.
1. Approver Anthony Status Approved
2. Approver Bill Status Open
3. Approver Catherine Status Created

Only when Bill approves then it goes in for approval to Catherine

Given that PO value is $30,000 which is more than Bill’s approval limit; should not system skip Bill from the approval sequence?
