Note

If this check box is selected, the purchase requisition cannot be updated before approval. Updates can be made only when the requisition is rejected by the approver.

Note
  • Once selected, this check box cannot be cleared anymore if open purchase requisitions exist. Open requisitions are requisitions with a status other than Canceled and Converted.
