How can I set up a purchase requisition to be purchased against?

2

You can set up a purchase requisition to be purchased against several ways, all resulting in a purchase order being created. The first step for all of the below listed methods require a purchase requisition be made and moved to an open status.

  1. Take the form action “Create a Purchase Order” directly from the purchase requisition. This is the most direct way to purchase against a purchase requisition.
  2. Take the form action “Create a Supplier Quote” directly from the purchase requisition. This creates a supplier quote that is sent to the supplier. Once the supplier receives and responds, the supplier quote can be used to create a purchase order.
  3. Navigate to the “Open Purchase Requisitions” application. From here, the buyer associated with the purchase requisition should be entered in the Buyer field. Select the purchase requisition and take the form action “View Queue”. This view allows you to create stand alone or multiple purchase orders and supplier quotes, or you can add the purchase requisition to an existing purchase order/supplier quote.

All three methods listed above will result in a purchase requisition being purchased again.
