.. Purchasing & Payment Approving SAP Requisitions Notification of Requisition Line Items Needing Approval Contents How SAP Routes Requisition Line Items Getting the Notification Accessing Your Inbox Finding the Line Item(s) You Wish to Review How SAP Routes Requisition Line Items SAP routes each line item of a requisition separately for approval. For example, a 2-line item requisition will appear as 2 separate lines in your inbox. You need to review both line items for approval. The individual line items of a multi-line item requisition may also be split up and routed to different places, based on the total dollar value of the line item not the total value of the requisition. For example, in one release strategy (Model 3), a 3-line item requisition, where line item 10 costs $100, line item 20 costs $700, and line item 30 costs $3000, would be routed as follows: Line item 10 ($100): Directly to Procurement Office under $500 - no approval required Line item 20 ($700): To a Level 1 approver between $500-$2500 - Level 1 approval required Line item 30 ($3000): To a Level 2 approver over $2500 - Level 2 approval required   -No approver would see line item 10. -The Level 1 approver would see only line item 20 in his/her inbox. -The Level 2 approver would see only line item 30 in his/her inbox. Note Only after all line items have been approved will the Procurement Office issue a purchase order. If only a single line item appears in your workflow inbox, that does not mean that the requisition contains only one line item. You can see all the line items in a requisition by viewing the Item Overview screen. top Getting the Notification When you log onto SAP, if you have any requisition line items in your inbox, SAP displays a message. SAP does not send you an email message via Eudora (or any other email program that your department may use). Click the Enter button to acknowledge the message. top Accessing Your Inbox 1.
