The ePro application has been modified to use Universal Workflow. UI Purchasing will release the updated application on November 1, 2022. All forms routing in legacy workflow will continue forward in legacy until the transaction is completed. Only new transactions submitted on November 1st will utilize Universal Workflow.
Legacy Workflow routing for eVouchers and Purchase Requisitions (PReqs) have been copied over to Universal Workflow and is available for review. Details of the rules that were used to create the routings in Universal Workflow and the forms for eVouchers and PReqs are provided in this email.
Offices:
If an office existed in both legacy workflow and Universal, the route was copied to Universal.
- If an office existed in legacy workflow, but not Universal, the office was created, and the route was copied to Universal.
- If an office was copied over to Universal for ProTrav, but manually deleted by office admins, the office was not copied over for ePro.
- If an org/dept did not have routes set up in legacy, the office was set “Default”.
- If an org/dept/sub department did not have routes set up in legacy, the office was set to “Opt Out”.
Note: In Legacy, the subdepartment field was free form and allowed entry to alphanumeric information that did not necessarily correspond with the MFK subdepartment. If a legacy workflow had a custom subdepartment, then both the customer sub department and the corresponding MFK workflows were created.
Terminated Employees:
- If a termed employee was the only approver on legacy workflow route, the route was not copied over to Universal.
- If a termed employee was one of multiple approvers on legacy workflow route, the route was copied over without the termed employee.
