In this topic you will learn how to Conduct Requisition Searches in eProcurement.

In eProcurement, searching for requisitions can be done in the Manage Requisitions page. Requisitions created in eProcurement and also in the Purchasing module can be searched.

After retrieving requisition search results, several actions can be performed on the requisition.

By default, the search will fill in the user's User ID and Business Unit in the search parameters, along with dates from the past week and the Request State of All but Complete.

Recommended parameters used in Search are:

• Business Unit: User’s BU

• Requisition Name: Blank

• Requisition ID: Enter if known, otherwise leave blank

• Requisition State: All but Complete

• Budget Status: Blank

• Date From and To: Narrow date range to refine search

• Requester: Specific UserID if possible, otherwise blank would pull all user’s requisitions

• Entered By: Blank

• PO ID: Enter if searching for requisition sourced to a specific PO

Recommended Advanced Search parameters are:

• Item ID: Blank

• Item Description: Enter if a specific item description is known, otherwise leave blank

• Ship To: Enter if known, otherwise leave blank

• Supplier Item ID: Blank

NOTE: For this exercise, the parameters will remain as defaulted.

Available Action options are:

• Approvals: View requisition approvals

• Cancel: Cancel the entire requisition

• Copy: Copy the requisition to a new one, which can then be edited

• Edit: Edit the existing requisition. If edited, the requisition must be submitted for approval again.

• View Print: View a printable version of the requisition
