Description

It doesn't seem like there is a quick way to mass edit approvers in PrePurchasing - according to INC2044299, I have to delete the question in each workgroup and add a new one with different approvers. This seems incredibly inefficient and time consuming for on/offboarding people (I have 150ish workgroups I'd have to go through). Would it be possible to make this easier? For example, maybe you could have the same question/approval copied across all the workgroups for a subunit/METRO and only have to change it in one place to get it updated across all the other METRO workgroups/orgs.

Research direction

Start by reviewing how PrePurchasing workgroups store and edit questions and approvers, then compare the current process described in INC2044299. Define how a shared question or approval would apply across a subunit, METRO, or organization, and confirm the mass-edit behavior with maintainers before implementation.
