Business Central has a workflow system for creating approvals that may cause issues with the plugin. Approvals can occur at different stages in the lifecycle of an invoice and payment. This page covers the approval flows not supported by the plugin and how to view your workflow configuration in Business Central.

## Unsupported Approvals

Approval flows that include releasing Posted Purchase Invoices will not work with the plugin. Other approval flows that impact the creation of payment records are also likely to cause issues. This includes flows that require approval to make postings to the General Ledger, Vendor Ledger, or Check Ledgers (if enabled).

Approval flows related to approving Posted Purchase Invoices before purchase may cause issues or delays in creating a payment due to changes in the invoice status.

## Viewing Workflow Configurations
