When approving vendor invoices make open PDF only open the current invioce PDF not the whole batch

When approving vendor invoices I select a whole batch, often 100+ invoices.  if I select Open PDF I expect the program to open the corresponding document to which I am approving.  It opens the whole lot.  Now I have to go search all of them to find the detail I am looking for.  The program opened the corresponding PDF in version 3.3.  It changed in 3.4 , was supposed to be fixed in 3.5.  Not so much! It needs to go back to the way it was before.

It would be nice to add the ability to zoom in the copy that was opened in a new window or even in the smaller view that is attached to the main approval screen.  That would be better than having to open the document, even if it did open singularly,  in most circumstances. 

Our only workaround right now is to E-Mail the document .  This selects only the corresponding PDF so it can be opened.  This is very clunky and now you will have even more windows open in the form of new emails.

    This!!! 

    Also, when the "Approve & Save" botton is pressed, a date stamp with the Posting Group name should be added to the .PDF file.  A watermark stating APPROVED would also be helpful.

    This is a major problem. When there are multiple invoices to approve, and the scanned image is to small as displayed through ProContractor, hitting the open button and having every PDF that is batched open is far too tedious. 

     

    The best solution is to allow zoom in and zoom out in the additional window that is opened. The viewing pane should not be static.
