Purchase Tier Validation - Forward Option
This module extends tier validation with "Forward" button for Purchase Order.
When a document is forwarded, a new Tier Validation is created on the fly for selected user as a minor sequence tier (i.e., 1.1, 2.1), and the current tier's status will be completed as "Forwarded".
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 13.0Adds a Forward button to purchase orders so an approver can pass the approval to another user, creating an extra sub-level approval step.
This module adds a Forward option to the tier validation approval process on purchase orders. When a purchase order is waiting for approval, an approver who is allowed to forward it sees a yellow Forward button on the purchase order form, next to the usual approval buttons.
Pressing Forward sends the document to a chosen user and creates a new approval step on the fly, placed as a sub-level of the current step (for example 1.1 or 2.1). The current step is then marked as Forwarded instead of fully approved.
The button only appears when the user is allowed to forward the document; otherwise it stays hidden. The module works together with the purchase tier validation and the generic forward option for tier validation, and it only changes the purchase order form screen. No new menus, reports or scheduled actions are added.
