Enter Express Requisition Header
Explanation
The express purchase requisition is used when there is an immediate demand for a
purchase order, e.g., when purchasing some urgently needed spare parts from the local
hardware store. When order code 5 (Express) is used, purchase
orders are immediately created for all lines as soon as the requisition is
released. If any of the lines requires authorization, this line will not be
converted until it has been fully authorized. The created purchase
order is automatically released and printed.
The purchase requisition is built in two levels, consisting of a requisition header and
one or several requisition lines. The first step in a new entry is to enter the purchase
requisition header.
The requisition number is system-assigned when saving; you cannot manually enter a
requisition number.
Prerequisites
