Hello all - I am trying to prevent people from approving vendor bills they entered into the system whether it was entered as a stand alone bill or from a purchase order. We already have the created by field on the bill so for stand alone vendor bills it works fine. My issue is if the bill is created from a PO this field is populated with the user who created the PO and not bill. Is there any way to change this or to create another field that will give me the user who created to bill? Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you

I would create a custom field and set it via the workflow as it is createdn. Note that there are many processes that could cause issues with this like the bill purchase orders page

Thank you Kevin, I do have the created by custom field but I don't know how to get a round it pulling the PO creator instead of the actual bill creator (when billed form a PO). Any ideas? or are you saying that there is a way for me to set a new field with the actual created by person via workflow.

I'd imagine "Make Copy" would be particularly painful to deal with here too

Yes, it definitely is. I was able to create a new field and sourced it using the workflow when the bill in created.

You can set the person who created it via workflow into a custom field.
