  • If the procurement card becomes invalid after you have selected it, the requisition can't be submitted until the card is removed or a new one is selected in its place.
  • When duplicating the requisition, the procurement card will only be copied if it's valid.
  • Using Extensibility, you can show or hide the procurement card on all the pages where it's displayed.
