Purchase Requests (Purchase Requisitions) Export Workflow
The Purchase Requests (Purchase Requisitions) export workflow lets you create new purchase requests and follow the approval in SuiteProjects Pro, and then export approved purchase requests to NetSuite. SuiteProjects Pro purchase requests are exported to NetSuite as purchase requisition transaction records (Transactions > Purchases > Enter Requisitions > List).
You can then create purchase orders from the purchase requisitions in NetSuite, and import the purchase orders from NetSuite into SuiteProjects Pro using the POs (Purchase Orders) import workflow. See POs (Purchase Orders) Import Workflow.
Requirements and Downstream Dependencies
Matching employee and product (purchase item) records must exist in both NetSuite and SuiteProjects Pro before you can export purchase requests from SuiteProjects Pro to NetSuite as purchase requisitions.
