Giving users access to Purchase Request approvals

Updated over a month ago

To give a user permissions to access Purchase Request approvals:

  1. Log in to FocalPoint Administrator

  2. Click System Control, Security Profiles

  3. Select the profile the user is in and click Edit

  4. Select the Security tab

  5. Select Authorisation in the left hand list

  6. In the right hand list, ensure that Purchase Requests has a green tick against it - you can double-click on the item to change between a cross and a tick (enabled and disabled).

  7. Click OK to save the changes

The user will also need access to at least one Purchase Request type:

  1. Log into FocalPoint Administrator

  2. Browse to System Control, Security Profiles

  3. Highlight the profile that the affected user is in and click Members

  4. Highlight the affected user in the list on the left and click Usage

  5. Change the drop-down menu to Purchase Requests

  6. Ensure all required types are ticked as Active

Once the user has permissions to approve and access to at least one Purchase Request type, they will need to log out and back into FocalPoint and should then be able to access approvals as normal.
