Managing Requisitions

Page Location: Requisitions > Find Requisition

The Find Requisition option helps users to find requisitions based on specified criteria. The more options selected, the smaller the returned list of requisitions. If the criterion entered only has one match, users are taken into that requisition file. This eliminates the search results page for the user to have to click on the requisition found to enter the file. If the file returned is not the right one, perform the search again.

Setting for the display column are controlled by the "Req List" setting. System defaults for the column displays are set by the Administrator in the Page Builder section; however, each user has the ability to change the settings based on his/her preference via the My Preferences page; but, this page controls the defaults for the users based on their role in the system.

Requisition Files are sorted by the Code column initially in the Req List but users can sort (ascending/descending) by any column that has the up and down arrows in the header. The sort order will be saved and remain in the specified order until re-sorted. To open a Requisition File, click on the Code hyperlink field. 

Any column that has sorting capability contains the up (^)and down (v) arrows in the column header.
