Answer / mstapps

in Oracle there are 2 types of approval heirarchies which
are as follows:

1. Employee or Supervisor relationships.

If you choose to use employee/supervisor relationships, you
define your approval routing structures as you enter
employees using the Enter Person window. In this case,
Purchasing does not require that you set up positions.

For example when you enter an employee in HR you will also
enter his supervisor.Now in PO if the employee is a buyer
then approver will be his supervisor.


2. Position Hierarchy

If you choose to use position hierarchies, you must set up
both jobs and positions. While positions and position
hierarchies require more initial effort to set up, they are
easy to maintain and allow you to define approval routing
structures that remain stable regardless of how frequently
individual employees leave your organization or relocate
within it.

1. Position Approval hierarchy
Position Hierarchies are hierarchies that have a position
relationship. By position, we mean position that are
attached to employees. Purchasing utilizes positions as a
roadmap to determine how and where documents will be routed
once the approval process has been initiated. It is first
necessary to have created all positions that are going to
be used in the system. Once all positions have been
created, it is necessary to build the position hierarchy.
Each position has approval limits, so when a purchase order
exceeds the limits of the position, the purchase order is
forwarded onto the next position in the Hierarchy.

2. Employee/Supervisor approval hierarchy
Employee/Supervisor approval hierarchy uses the employee-
supervisor relationships.
To implement this form of approval routing, you need only
to define jobs. The job will then serve as the tie to the
Approval group, and based on the approval limits from the
Approval Group, the Document will either be Approved or
Forwarded to the Employees’ Supervisor. If no Supervisor is
able to be located and the jobassigned to the employee does
not have Approval Authority, then the Approving employee
must enter a Forward-to person, or the Document will be
returned to an Incomplete status and a notification will be
sent to the Approving employee, stating - 'No Approver
Found'
