Approve and Publish

Overview

The process to approve and publish an authorization for a contract is available through the Accounting Authorization Tab. Authorized users can also publish authorizations using the Construction Tree Structure in the Construction Window, after approvals.

 

Prerequisites

A user must be authorized to edit authorization information in the Accounting Authorization Tab.

 

Approve and Publish

To approve and publish an authorization for a contract:

  • Search for and select a contract from the Select Contract drop-down menu.

  • Navigate to the Accounting Authorization Tab.

  • Right click on the authorization to be approved and published in the Authorization table.

  • Select "Approve and Publish" in the context-sensitive menu.

  • A confirmation window will appear.

    • Click on the Yes Button.

  • Note that a notification window will appear, indicating that the authorization has been successfully published.

    • Click on the OK button.

 

Notes

  • Once published, an authorization cannot be voided.

  • Users are prevented from saving changes to a system item to which changes have already been made. This prevents concurrency errors.
