Enter Purchase Requisition Lines for External Services
Explanation
A purchase requisition is comprised of a requisition header and one or more requisition lines. Once the header
has been entered, you can create purchase requisition lines.
Requisitions for external maintenance and repair services require the selection of order code 6 (External
Service Order) in the purchase requisition header. This selection makes the No Part Requisition Lines tab,
used for parts without part numbers, unavailable. All requisitions for external services are, therefore, entered on
the Part Requisition Lines tab.
Prerequisites
- The purchase requisition header must have been entered and saved.
- The purchase part must have been defined as a sales part in the Purchase Part or Supplier for
Purchase Part page.
- Assortment structures must be defined if you want to refer to assortments when entering part numbers.
- The supplier must have been defined as a customer in the Supplier or Supplier for Purchase Part
page.
- A default receive case for the supplier-part relationship should have been defined on the Inspection
Info tab of the Supplier for Purchase Part page. (Note: You can also specify the applicable
receive case later on in the process when you record arrival of the returned service part).
- The external service types must have been defined on the Procurement Basic Data/External Service
Types page.
- A price for each external service type must have been defined on the External Service Prices tab of
the Supplier for Purchase Part page.
- The purchase component method for the site, defined in the Site/Sales and Procurement page, must have
been set to Customer Order, which makes the charge/no-charge function available.
