Requisition Statuses

You can view the status of requisitions in the My Requisitions table and on the Manage Requisitions page.

Status Description

The following table lists all requisition statuses and their descriptions.

Requisition Status

Description

Approved

A requisition is approved if on initial submission for approval it was approved.

The requisition retains the status of approved unless all the active lines on the requisition have a different status. Then, the new status is rolled up to the requisition header.

Note: An approved requisition can contain lines with other statuses such as returned, withdrawn, rejected, and so on. For example, a requisition with multiple lines is approved, so both the header and the lines are approved. If a buyer returns a line, the header and line remain approved with the exception of the returned line, which will have the status of returned. If a line from the approved requisition is withdrawn, the status remains the same for the other lines and header.

Canceled

A requisition is canceled if all the lines on the requisition except for those with a status of split or replaced have a status of canceled.

Pending Approval

A requisition line that's submitted but hasn't yet gone through the approval process is pending approval. A requisition is pending approval if all the active lines on the requisition are pending approval.

Incomplete

A requisition is incomplete when it not submitted for approval or when all the active lines have a status of incomplete.

Rejected

A requisition is rejected if all the active lines on the requisition have a status of rejected (all the active lines were rejected during the approval process).

Returned

A requisition is returned if all the active lines on the requisition have a status of returned (all the active lines on the requisition have been returned by the buyer).

Withdrawn

A requisition can be withdrawn after submission for approval if, for example, modifications to the requisition are required. This gives the requisition withdrawn status.
