Hi Phil,

Thanks a lot for your quick response.  Understood on how the process works
in webERP.  

But as per the industry practice and as you are aware, the end user may not
wait until the buyer get the supplier details to be added into the item
under purchasing data to raise the purchase requisition.  Also, the same
item can be demanded by multiple people where the buyer may not know the
consolidated demand while placing the order with customer which will limit
the price negotiations. (please educate me if we have this option)

And cases where the item may not require to undergo the purchase order cycle
as the same can be procured by cash purchase but buyer has to be notified
with a formally authorized demand form/requisition to plan better. 

I feel, this feature implementation can really help the purchasing team in
different ways to have better control on the procurement. Please advise. 

Regards, Muthu

Hello Muthu,

Whilst we don't have the purchase requisition step - we do have a full
authorisation logic where the purchase order initiation is quite separate to
the authorisation and the order cannot be sent until it is authorised. The
purchase requisition is effectively the establishment of an unauthorised
purchase order and can be initiated by users with appropriate permissions.
The authority to authorise and release purchase orders can be set up for
different users  for different levels of authority/currency.

Given the separation of the authorisation logic and the purchase order
initiation in an on-line environment I figured that the requisition step was
actually unnecessary.
