Need a Much Better Way to Reroute Pending Purchase Orders When users are on Vacation or Leave

According to the KB article "How to Re-Submit a PO Pending Purchase Order or PM Purchase Order for Approval?" you have to literally change every PO Item to something, save it, then change it back to what it was (hence adding potential of changing the PO amounts that was already emailed and signed off by our vendors)  in order to re-route the workflow or allow someone else to approve it.  It's either that or break into that user's account in Vista, which will NOT work as the user's domain account would have already been inactivated as well as NO ONE knowing every user's domain account passwords (security breach too).

In AP Invoice Review procedures the Reviewer tab is editable so we can change or add an additional VP User name to that Reviewer so we can log in as ourselves and fix things.  Why is the PO so difficult to adjust to a business flow?

    Overkill, a single change to amount would be great.
