OfficeMax Operations Guide
Releasing Held Orders:
This feature is for Approving Officials and users that have previously placed an order on hold. To release held orders click on the message “You have orders awaiting your approval” which is within the body of Order Updates on the Manage Orders Page. You can approve the orders in Approve Orders (box in the upper Right of the screen), which displays order summary information. If you deny the order, a Reason for Denial comment can be entered. Click the “Submit” button to continue. The approval Summary page will display. Click “Submit” to process your approval choices. A message will display with the order processed. An Approval Complete page with your processed approval choices will display. To view the details of an order before approving, click on the PO Number (OfficeMax PO not a PeopleSoft PO) link back on the Approve Orders page. Click “Approve” or “Deny” to approve or deny that specific order only. If you deny the order, you can enter a Reason For Denial before clicking the Denial button. The Approval Summary page will display. Click “Edit” to make changes to the order. You will need to checkout once again to re-submit the order. Click “Back” to return to “Approve Orders” page.
