Microsoft Dynamics GP October 2021 Release Feature of the Day: Workflow Approvers Count

Microsoft Dynamics GPThis post is part of the Microsoft Dynamics GP October 2021 Release Feature of the Day series where I am going to echo the posts from the Inside Microsoft Dynamics GP Blog, while adding some commentary, on the new features introduced in the Microsoft Dynamics GP October 2021 Release which is now available.

This post is on the Workflow Approvers Count System enhancement.

An option has been added to the workflow completion policy in the Workflow Maintenance window (Administration area page » Setup » Company » Workflow » Workflow Maintenance), allowing you to set a Number of Approvers with a count instead of the existing options for only one response, majority or all must approve.

For this completion option, when the number of approvals replied has reached this count, then the workflow step will be marked as complete and will be sent to the next step in the workflow.

Workflow Maintenance

This is a good addition to workflow which gives a good level of control over the number of approvals needed.
