In the workflow setup, if there are two approvers for this approval, how can we ensure that the approvers(both)
receive the email notifications?

[@WebSanSolutionsInc]

@jaclynlee-g8h, On the Approval User setup window, the user's emails need to be populated and if the two users are part of the same Workflow User Group, then they'll both receive the email notification for approval. Hope that helps!

[@MahadAmjad-uh3ez]

[@WebSanSolutionsInc]

Hi, Yes, both sender and receiver need to have an email setup:

What do you do when you don't want it to be possible to open a purchase order and be able to adjust it without someone approving it?

HI @Luke-zr5ew,
There's nothing native in BC that'll prevent a user from setting a PO status to Open. You would have to build a custom extension to prevent users from approving a PO.
