What is the approval status of a purchase order when change management is enabled and the order is submitted into workflow?

When change management is enabled for purchase orders in Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management, the approval status of a purchase order that has been submitted into the workflow is "In review." This means that once the purchase order is submitted, it enters a workflow process where it is subject to approval by designated individuals or roles. The status "In review" indicates that the purchase order is currently under assessment and has not yet received final authorization.

During this workflow process, stakeholders can evaluate the details of the purchase order, ask for adjustments if necessary, or outright approve it. This structured approach ensures that purchases go through the proper channels to maintain compliance, budget control, and appropriate oversight.

The other status options such as "Submitted," "Created," and "Confirmed" are not relevant to the workflow process in this context. "Submitted" might imply that the order has been entered but doesn't capture the status of being actively reviewed for approval. "Created" refers to the initial state of the purchase order, and "Confirmed" indicates that the purchase order has been approved and finalized, which cannot occur until the order has gone through the "In review" stage.
