Encountering an error on the Approval Page of transactions may hinder users to perform bulk approval which can also prolong their daily tasks and processes.
Users can mass submit for approve, reject, re-submit for approval in the Approve Vendor Bill Page if the Approval Routing = T. The Actions in the Approve Bills Page are the actions from the Custom Approval Workflow created.
Example Scenario:
Upon selecting an action “Submit for Approval” an error is encountered up saying: “Your formula has an error in it. It could resolve to the wrong datatype, use an unknown function, or have a syntax error. Please go back, correct the formula, and re-submit”.
First, what you need to do is to check if the Saved Search used by Approve Bills Page is setup or customized as per the user’s business process. If you have checked and it is, select the preferred setup.
If the error still shows, make sure that there are correct Conditions set up on Workflow Action that allows the record to flow to the Approval process.
