Working with Purchase Requisitions

A purchase requisition is a request to Purchasing to procure a quantity of material or a service so that it is available at a certain point in time.

You create a purchase requisition when to give notification of requirements of materials or external services, as well as track these requirements. Purchase requisitions can be created either directly or indirectly:

  • Directly: Someone from the requesting department enters a purchase requisition manually. The person creating the requisition determines what and how much to order, as well as the delivery date.

  • Indirectly: The purchase requisition is initiated through another SAP component.

Access the Purchase Requisitions screen from the Orders icon on the main landing page. The Purchase Requisitions page is blank until you add your purchase requisitions to the page by tapping the Add icon.

From the main list, you can do the following:

  • Add a new purchase requisition

  • Select an item in the list and transmit the added purchase requisition to the SAP ERP back end.

For each selected purchase requisition, you can:

  • Edit the purchase requisition

  • Discard the purchase requisition

  • Copy the purchase requisition

  • Add an item to the selected purchase requisition
