Function: Purchase requisition management

In this function, you can handle all purchase requests in an enterprise unit that are not automatically generated. This often boils down to requests for indirect, non-BOM purchases, and rather specific, exceptional purchases.

Process: Manage purchase requisitions (code: MPU07a)

The objective of this process is to enter any purchase requests from within an enterprise unit that are not automatically generated. These requests are usually made for indirect, non-BOM purchases and specific purchases.

This process results in an entered purchase request.

In practice, this process will be split up into the following three steps:

  1. Requisition entry, which anyone can carry out.
  2. Initial approval step, in which the requisition can be cancelled or submitted, but is generally carried out by a department manager.
  3. The last official approval, which can result in the conversion of a requisition into a quotation or an order, and is generally carried out by purchase.
