Requisition Processing

A requisition is a request for goods or services which may or may not be acted upon by a buyer through placement of a purchase order.  A requisition is defined by a part number, a quantity and a due date.  A buyer code and a priority code are also indicated to facilitate and direct requisition covering.  Requisitions are followed from their creation to their being covered by purchase orders by means of a status code.

A requisition can be held automatically if its amount exceeds a predefined maximum amount.

Using the vendor allocation feature, requisitions generated through Master Scheduling or Requirements Planning can be automatically applied to vendors' purchase orders with calculation and allocation specifications.  The quota percentage can be calculated using the annual Planned Quantity or the annual Planned Quantity Not Accounted For.  This quantity is established on the item/vendor relationship.  Once vendors are selected and quotas have been calculated, the releases this process generates can be applied to open purchase orders in two ways: By Item or By Requisition.
