University Procurement System
This section explains the processes by which staff within
Business Affairs will perform certain activities related to
running the job to create Auto POs and for canceling internal
requisitions in certain instances.
This section is best used as a step-by-step guide as you
generate auto pos, and cancel internal requisitions.
All internal requisitions will result in an 'Auto-PO'. When
you run the job to create auto pos, UPJJCAPO, this
will also pick up all internal requisitions which have
reached final approval.
The Internal Purchase Orders will print on a separate
report from other purchase orders.
The report will designate how many internal purchase orders
were created, how many 'future dated' internal requisitions
are still waiting to be created, and how many internal
requisitions had errors which will result in the internal
requisition being canceled.
The report will look similar to the following:

An internal requisition with a Status of 'G' which
shows up on your list of internal requistions that could not
be processed, must be canceled and the department notified as
to why the internal requisition had to be canceled.
Reasons for cancellation of an internal requistion are as
follows:
-
Cost Center has now become inactive
-
Vendor Address or Name has become obsolete
-
Vendor has become inactive
The printed report you receive will show why the auto po did
not generate.
In order to cancel a requisition, any lines associated with
the requisition must be canceled first.
Canceling an internal requisition is a four (4) step
process. First you must find out how many lines are
contained on the internal requisition. Then you must cancel
the requisition lines through PURL (Purchasing Update to
Requisition Line). Then, you must cancel the requisition
header through PURH (Purchasing Update to Requisition
Header). And finally, you will notify the dept. of the
cancellation and why.
