We are curious to know if the use of an FND account with responsibility assignments is 'required' in order to approve purchase requisitions or POs from users within that team? We do not use Job hierarchy approvals, but use Employee/Supervisor structure for approvals.

Want to End Date FND accounts that have not been used within 180 days, but most of these users are Approvers for Reqs/POs so we want to investigate this before proceeding.

Please advise.

Hi,

What would be the use of disabling the FND Accounts? Are you trying to limit their eBS access to only notifications and external approvals?

If they are not listed as logged in for a 180 days, then how did they approve their req's / PO's? Are they approving by e-mail only?

I've never tested it, even though it would theoretically work, as long as you keep them listed in WF_ROLES, as related to the person_id in PER_PEOPLE_F. This probably means customizing the WF_ROLES view. The approvallist checks the WF_ROLES, for source_system PER with the corresponding person_id.

However, test it thoroughly, because some legacy code may still refer to FND_USER.

Regards,

Arian
