Configuring the Reopening Requisition Action

The configuration of the Reopen Requisition action consists in configuring specific settings and permissions.

The Reopen Requisition action is available to users if:

  • The Ability to Reopen Requisitions setting is set to Yes.

  • The Reopen a filled or cancelled requisition permission was granted to users.

  • The requisition status is Filled or Canceled.

When a user is doing the Reopen Requisition action from a canceled requisition, if the Restart Approval Process After "Cancel" Step setting is set to Yes, the status of the requisition will be changed to Draft and the Request Approval action will be triggered. Note that this action does not apply to requisitions that were only draft then cancelled.

When a user is doing the Reopen Requisition action from a filled requisition, if the Restart Approval Process After "Fill" Step setting is set to yes, the status of the requisition will be changed to Draft and the Request Approval action will be triggered.
