Price change approvals across stores

Price changes per store: once each manager is given their store, they approve that store's requests; head office sees and approves them all.

What it does

Price changes asked for by a store, approved by that store's manager or by head office.

Staff raise a request for one store: the item, the price list, the new price and the reason.
The store's manager approves it, or head office does. Head office sees every store's requests.
Once it is approved, the Applier sets the new price and marks the request applied.
An approval-rule table lists each approver's level and, for a store manager, a limit in percent.
Every change to a request is recorded in its history.

The install adds four roles with no one in them: IVENDNEXT APS Requester, Store Manager, Head Office and Applier.
In Desk, open each person's User record, tick Is Desk User and give them one role. Give no one both a raising role and an approving role.
A System Manager opens IVENDNEXT APS Approval Rule and adds one row for each approver: the person, the level (Store or Head Office) and, for a store manager, their store and a limit in percent.
For each store manager, add a User Permission that allows their store (a POS Profile). They then see only that store's requests; head office needs none.
In Role Permissions Manager, give IVENDNEXT APS Applier Write on Item Price. Removing the app removes that right, so give it back to a role of your own first.

The price list has no store: applying a request changes that price list for every store that uses it.
The percentage limit is checked only by a service you connect. On its own, the approval flow does not check it.
Approving does not change a price by itself: the Applier sets it.
This app needs a key from iVendNext or your partner.
Nothing leaves your shop.
