Sourcing Demand from PeopleSoft Purchasing

PeopleSoft Purchasing creates requisitions internally as well as receiving requisitions and other requests for stock from multiple PeopleSoft applications and external systems. The sourcing feature within PeopleSoft Purchasing can checks to see if the demand can be fulfilled by inventory rather than creating a purchase order to be sent to the supplier. The Build Inventory Demand process (PO_REQINVS) in PeopleSoft Purchasing can create material stock requests in PeopleSoft Inventory when stock exists to fulfill a requisition or other demand.

Sources of demand that could be created as stock requests by the Build Inventory Demand process include:

• Requisitions created in PeopleSoft Purchasing.

• Requisitions created in PeopleSoft eProcurement.

• Replenishment requests from another PeopleSoft Inventory business unit.
