Item Note	Enter any internal notes and/or vendor justification, if required. If the requisition total is $10,000 or more, remember to send vendor quotes to the Procurement Office and indicate in the Item Note field that you are sending this backup. Be sure to mark all supporting documentation with the SAP requisition number. For purchases from internal providers, this field is optional. Vendor justification is not required for internal provider requisitions.
