Raising a purchase requisition, and ordering it, with Ask

Ask can raise a purchase requisition with all its lines in one step, and turn an approved requisition into a purchase order. Name the items by their item number and the supplier by its name or number.

Ask a requisition the way you would fill the form: what, how many, the estimated unit price and when it is needed. For example: Raise a purchase requisition for <2> of <RM-STEEL-01> at an estimated <10.00> each and <3> of <RM-MOTOR-01> at <5.00> each, needed by <15 January 2031>.

• Ask finds each item by its item number and lists the requisition with its lines for you to confirm. On Confirm the requisition is made with every line in one step.
• To order an approved requisition, ask: Order <REQ-000016> from <Midwest Steel Supply Co.>. Ask finds the supplier by its name or supplier number and, on Confirm, raises the purchase order; the requisition shows as converted.
• A requisition that still needs approval, or one already on an order, is refused with the reason, and Ask says so.
