Answer

This indicates that the users order value exceeds the amount they are authorised. As can be seen on the pop up it would require for the user to get someone who is authorised to proceed with the Purchase Order. Or, the user can request for their purchase order amount to be increased by their administration. Administration can amend it within: Purchase Order> Reporting> Permissions

This will generate the following screen:

You can see within this screen the below needs to be raised:

Purchase Order Limit

Subcontract Order Limit

Vehicle Order Limit

This should be amended according to the value required. This would then enable the user to process the order.
