Sales agreements can be approved in two ways.
Self-approval: Key account managers can approve a sales agreement by themselves by changing
the status of the sales agreement to Approved.
Approval Process: If your org has an approval process for sales agreements, key account
managers can use the process to get sales agreements approved. See Approval Processes.
To restrict the self-approval of sales agreements, enable Approval Process in Setup. Then, key
account managers are required to submit sales agreements for approval through the approval
process.
In Setup, in the Quick Find box, enter Sales Agreements, and then
select Sales Agreements.
In the Approval Process section, do one of these:
To allow approvals only through a predefined process and restrict self-approvals, turn
on Approval Process.
To allow approvals through the predefined process and self-approvals, turn off Approval
Process.
If you set up an approval process for sales agreements, ensure that you add the Submit
for Approval quick action to the Sales Agreement page layout.
Note At least one product must be
associated with a sales agreement for the sales agreement to be eligible for
approval.
