Hi Cristina,

It is not possible to use the standard "Approve Purchase Order" fiori application without the configuration of a workflow, as it's is part of the implementation prerequisites:

App Implementation: Approve Purchase Orders - SAP Fiori principal apps 1.0 for SAP ERP - SAP Library

Configuration Tasks

To enable the Approve Purchase Orders app, the following prerequisites must be met in Customizing:

• You use the release strategy in Purchasing (MM-PUR). You have made the corresponding settings in Customizing for Materials Management under Purchasing Purchase Order Release Procedure for Purchase Orders .
• You have configured the approval workflow for approving purchase orders.
• To create work items which can be approved using the app, you have set up a connection between the release strategy and SAP Business Workflow.

I think that you may decide to go for a custom fiori application.

Take a look at the following document:
