Hi Friends, let us take a look at some of the exciting features in purchase requisitions for the release SAP S/4HANA Cloud 2302.

Application for Self-Service Procurement - Modernized Version


The modernized version of the My Purchase Requisitions app is the successor of the existing Create Purchase Requisition and My Purchase Requisitions apps. The modernization of the app is in line with the need to keep up with the Fiori guidelines and adoption of Fiori Elements in our user interface.

Here is a short video that introduces you to the application.


As you can see, the application makes it easier for you to create and manage your purchase requisitions. With the enhanced usability of this application, and with the default values maintained in the Default Settings for Users application, you can now perform the requisitioning process more efficiently and effectively.
