Purchasing would like to use this grid as a worklist for PO's that still need to be processed. The form is called pending purchase order there should be someway to see only pending.

A Pending PO should really be purged from this table after the purchasing agent clicks the Process button to turn the Pending PO into an actual PO. This would avoid the clutter caused by the legacy pending POs that have already passed through the workflow approval and were processed into actual POs.
In addition to the clutter, leaving the Pending POs in this form could allow users to circumvent the approval process or inadvertently process an old Pending PO through to an actual PO. As long as the original job is still active; this can be achieved by purging the original PO from the system (PO Purge form), then clicking the now activated Process button to push the Pending PO into a new batch.
Both of these issues make the PO Pending Purchase Order form unusable in our process.
