Hold Purchase Requisition

Former Member

Hello,

My people would like to 'Hold' a purchase req. to be able to finish it later.

I did not find any solution except changing the 'blocking indicator' in the 'status' tab. But this does not prevent the PR from going through the approval path.

Is there any chance to 'save' a purchase requisition without sending it through the approval path.

Thank you very much for your help.

Hi,

there is no hold function, but you do have the ability to flag the req line as deleted and so you can create the requ and flag the line and it will not be processed. (if you only wnat a header then you would have to add a dummy line to flag this.)

When you want to use this req just unflag the deletion.

If you don't like this option then set the "requisition closed" flag on the line instead (Quantities / dates tab) and remove this when you are ready.

Hello Tobias,

How about if you define one of the characteristic as Blocked Indiacator for your release process. If block indicator status is equal to BLOCKED then it will not trigger release procedure.

You can try CEBAN-BLCKD as one of the characteristic.

Hope this helps.

Hi Arif Mansuri,

Thanks for your help. Your answer is very helpfull.

But we would appreciate if there is a solution to hold the purchase requisition on the header level and in a 'not-completed status'.

Our people create several lines in one PR over hours or days (don't know why). Therefore it would be very helpfull if they can hold the req in total without finishing evrey line.

Thanks for any help
