Oracle Financials Cloud: Accounts Receivable 2017 Implementation Essentials — Question 27

You defined an Approved Supplier List (ASL) with a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) for requisitions. After you submit a requisition with the BPA as a source document, you found an approved requisition and automatically created PO (Purchase Order). However, the status of this PO was confirmed as "Incomplete" instead of "Open" as expected.
Identify two causes for this behavior.

Answer options

• A. The "Enable negotiation approval" check box is deselected in the Configure Procurement Business Function.
• B. The "Approval required for buyer modified lines" check box is deselected in the Configure Requisitioning Business Function.
• C. The "Automatically submit for approval" check box is deselected in the BPA that was referenced from the requisition.
• D. The "Allow Purchase Order Approval" check box is deselected in the Manage Approved Supplier List Status, which assigned ASL’s status.

Correct answer: B, C

Explanation

The correct answers are B and C because if the 'Approval required for buyer modified lines' is deselected, it affects the approval process for modifications, and if the 'Automatically submit for approval' is unchecked in the BPA, the PO won't be submitted for approval, leading to an 'Incomplete' status. Options A and D do not directly impact the automatic approval or the creation of a Purchase Order from the requisition.
