Identify three true statements about the invoice approval workflow. (Choose three.)

Answer options

A: If an approver rejects the invoice, the Workflow program ends. Correct answer

B: If an approver does not respond within the time you specify, Workflow routes the invoice back to the originator.

C: If an approver does not respond within the time you specify, the Workflow requests approval from that person’s manager. Correct answer

D: If an approver approves the invoice, the invoice goes to the next person in the approver list until all required people approve the invoice. Correct answer

E: If the invoice amount is chanaged after the invoice is already submitted to the approval process or after the process is complete, the system does not automatically resubmit the invoice for approval.

Correct Answer:

A. If an approver rejects the invoice, the Workflow program ends.; C. If an approver does not respond within the time you specify, the Workflow requests approval from that person’s manager.; D. If an approver approves the invoice, the invoice goes to the next person in the approver list until all required people approve the invoice.

Explanation

In Oracle Payables, the Invoice Approval Workflow automates the routing of invoices to designated approvers based on predefined rules. According to the Oracle Payables User's Guide, the workflow follows specific routing behaviors: if an approver approves the invoice, it sequentially routes to the next person on the approver list until all required approvals are obtained. If an approver fails to respond within the predefined timeout period, the workflow automatically escalates the notification and requests approval from that approver's manager. Finally, if any approver rejects the invoice, the workflow program immediately ends, and the invoice approval status is updated to 'Rejected'.

Why Incorrect

Option B: Upon a timeout, the workflow escalates the approval request to the non-responsive approver's manager, rather than returning it to the invoice originator.
Option E: Modifying the invoice amount resets its approval status to 'Required', meaning the invoice must be subjected to the approval process again to maintain financial controls.
