Approve Supplier Schedule, Manually

Explanation

The second step in the supplier schedule flow is the approval. By approving the schedule, you indicate that the schedule is authorized for release to the supplier. There are two ways to approve a supplier schedule: Automatically upon conclusion of a successful tolerance check and Manually by authorized user if the tolerance check is not used or if the schedule is out of tolerance.

Note: It is not possible to approve the supplier schedule if the approver has been blocked for use.

Prerequisites

• If the schedule must be run through the tolerance check, the supplier schedule should pass this step before it can be approved.
• The user who intends to perform the approval must be connected to the approver ID indicated on the supplier schedule agreement.

System Effects

• If successfully approved, the schedule can continue to the release step. If not, it can be reset and run through the previous step once more.
