Direct Connect for Requisition Self Service

The Direct Connect feature in the JD Edwards Requisition Self Service system enables you to select goods and services from approved vendor websites using the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Shopping Cart program, and add them to a purchase requisition. The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne system processes this requisition by using standard processing.
