Enter Exchange Components, Requisition

Explanation

Use this activity to connect an unserviceable component part to a purchase requisition line. You will be sending the unserviceable part to the supplier in exchange for a serviceable part. (The unserviceable part is also called the exchange component part).

It is possible to add a new record, delete an existing record, or update an existing record in this page as long as the status of the requisition line is Planned, Released, Authorized, or Partially Authorized. For authorized and partially-authorized lines, you can only add new records if the authorization rule allows a change in the requisition price. When the requisition line has been converted to a purchase order, you can view the information, but no updates are allowed.
