We do not use GP Workflow for Payables Management... but I'm wondering if the Workflow_Status field in the PM10000, PM20000, and PM30200 tables may be used in our custom integration routines.
That is, we have a custom Payables invoice approval process set up as a SharePoint workflow. When the SharePoint workflow is complete, a payable invoice is approved for payment, and our integration routine takes that invoice off Hold in GP.
What I'm wondering is this: if we also set the Workflow_Status field to 6 (Approved) in our integration routine, might that value be overwritten by GP at some point in its normal operations?
When does GP stick a value in that field if we don't use the Workflow capability?
I've checked the value of that field in all three tables and they're set to either 9 (Not Activated) or 0.
Any advice?
Sincerely,
