Overview

With the Review/Print Requisition function you can search for, review, and print requisitions. You can also look up the approval status, total dollar value of the requisition, and the cost object and G/L account assignments. Whenever you want to see all the details of a requisition for review on screen or in hard copy, you can use this function.

Find a Requisition

From SAP User Menu screen:

Navigation Path:

- User Menu
- Role ZMIT

  1. You must enter at least a requisition number in the Purchase Requisition field or a plant code in the Plant / Int. Service Provider field. For purchases from external vendors, use plant GPLT.
  2. Enter any other criteria for selecting requisitions: the creation date, release date, userid of requisition creator, profit center, or fund center.
  3. If you only want to see requisitions that have passed through all levels of approval, check the box next to Only fully released reqs.
  4. If you want to print the requisition(s) without displaying them first, check the box next to Print immediately. Otherwise leave the box unchecked.
  5. Click the Execute button button. SAP displays a list of requisitions that meet your selection criteria.

Review a Requisition

screen capture: review/print req report

You can review all the details of a requisition, as well as find the release strategy required for a line item and its current release status.

  1. To see the details for a requisition, click the magnifying glass with the 'plus' signscreen capture to the far right of the requisition line.
  2. The Release status field shows the approval level that applies to the line item. In the example above, the approval level is Level 2 (DLC Level 2).
  3. The release status of the line item is also shown:
    Red X = not yet approved
    Green Checkmark= approved
    If the Release status field does not appear, the line item does not require approvals. It is routed directly to the Procurement Office.
  4. To hide the details for the requisition, click magnifying glass with the 'minus' signscreen capture to the right of the requisition line.

 

Note

You can dowload the list of requisitions to a spreadsheet using the Save Option. See the instructions in Reports: Reporting Fundamentals: Downloading Reports.
