Release 200.007.000
For the release 200.007.000 of maxflow® purchase order, which we published in May 2021, we have made various small changes and corrections in addition to the following functions.
Automatic Approval with "Four-Eye-Principle"
In the configuration of approval levels and approval levels per item type, the setting for additional release has been expanded to include the option "automatic - 4-eyes priznip". This option allows an automatic additional release taking into account the "four-eye-principle". If an editor has already released at the previous level and there is no other releaser, this user may not release this level. However, if at least one other user has already released and the releaser of the last stage is also determined for the current stage, the current approval level is automatically released.
Monitor - Selection by Processing Period
As of this release, selection by processing period is available on the selection screen of the maxflow® purchase order monitor. The processing period can be used to restrict the selection to actual activities on processes. With this selection, the entries of the process logs are searched according to the specified period.
Logging Approval by Small Amount Rule
In the case of automatic release by means of small amount rules, it was previously not possible to identify exactly which small amount rule was used as the basis for release, either in the process log or in the release history. If several or overlapping small amount rules were used, it was difficult to check the automatic release. The logging of the release by small amount rules was therefore adapted and the small amount rule that caused the release was added to both the process log and the release history. In addition, the display of the item status text in the table of items, e.g. in the release and in the document details, has been adapted and now also contains further information on automatic releases by small amount rules or system releases.
