Preventing direct purchase receipts

Hi

We have very strict controls in place around purchasing, and have realised that users can receipt lines that do not come from a PO (direct purchase receipts).  How do we prevent this, is there a switch that we can switch off to prevent it, or is our only option to remove the “+” off the line using roles?

Hi @MarciaW 

The only way to prevent this is under user security. You would need to go in the Access Rights by Role and change the below rights.

Thanks - that’s surprising and a bit disappointing.  It creates a real gap in the control over purchases for this to be the standard system setup.

We tried this and it’s worked partly :-)

I did this:

And it did this

But now I still need to solve this

I tried setting “Details” to “Edit” and that didn’t work.  Any other ideas?

Hi @MarciaW ,

I too have not been able to get User Access to disable the (+) button without impacting the Add PO Line button. 

The only way which seems to work is a customisation toggle - relatively simple, but it does mean that all users are affected. See here:
