Create Requisition

The procurement process begins when the need arises for items or services. A requisition is placed that tells the buyer what is needed, when it is needed, and the approximate or actual cost associated with the item or service requested.

Requisitions can be entered directly into the JD Edwards system or from an external system through electronic data interchange (EDI), Orchestrations, or Business Services (BSSV).

In the sample EA_Procurement Process page, the following Watchlists are associated with the Requisitions tile:

  • Pending Inbound Orders Past 1 Year on the EDI tile displays the number of requisitions that have come in from other systems and are not processed for 1 year.
  • Requisitions Awaiting PO Conversion on the Requisitions tile displays the number of requisitions ready to be converted into purchase orders.
  • Requisitions on Hold on the Requisitions tile displays the number of requisitions on hold.
