1. Close POs directly in UShop

2. Add an individual as an Ad-Hoc approver to requisition workflow

This feature allows you to add an individual, in addition to GFA approval, to the requisition workflow. Once this individual is assigned as an Ad-Hoc approver, their approval is required. This can provide an increased level of internal controls to any order you choose.
