Purchase Order Not Entered in Employee Center Goes to a Status of Pending Receipt Instead of Pending Supervisor Approval or Approved by Supervisor/Pending Receipt

User enters Purchase Request in Employee Center role and Employee field is automatically set to the user currently logged in. This field cannot be edited. If user logs using another role aside from Employee Center and enter Purchase Order, Employee field does not default to the current logged in user. The ability to have the Employee field on the Purchase Order default to the current user is still an Enhancement 97543.

If user does not select an employee on the Employee field, the Purchase Order will be saved with a status of Pending Receipt. It will no longer go through the approval routing process. User wants to enforce approval routing on Purchase Orders. Employee field needs to be selected.
