Importing Approved Requisitions

You can import requisitions that are either unapproved, approved, or pre-approved from other Oracle or non-Oracle systems. You import requisitions through the Standard Report Submission window using the Requisition Import process. If you have enabled budgetary control or encumbrance accounting, requisitions that you import as Approved are actually loaded with a status of Pre-approved. That is, an approver has authorized the requisition but you need to take action to reserve funds for a requisition. You must use the Approve Documents window to reserve funds for imported requisitions.

If you load requisitions with a status of Unapproved, you must go through the complete approval and funds reservation cycle for these requisitions.

Attention: If you have created encumbrances for a requisition in a non-Oracle system and you import a requisition into Oracle Purchasing, and you are using requisition encumbrance or requisition budgetary control, you will create a second encumbrance for the requisition. You should either import requisitions using accounts which you do not encumber, or not use requisitions encumbrance or requisition budgetary control, or not create encumbrances in the feeder system. You submit Requisition Import through the Run Reports window.
