I have a vendor return authorization approval workflow. I can’t set the order status to Pending Credit status. Is it not possible?

No you cannot change the native transaction status field via workflow

You wild have to post an item fulfillment or use items that are non fulfillable

We don't use non-fulfillable items. What I meant is automatically approve the VRA.

I was able to make it work somehow. Instead of adding a custom Approve button that can’t automatically change the status from Pending Approval to Pending Credit (no fulfillable items), I just hide the native Approve Authorization button from users who should not be able to approve the VRAs. But am I getting this error which is not on SuiteAnswers: “That operation can only be performed when there is a transaction in progress.”
