Task Order Transaction

The Task Order (TK) transaction is a Transaction Sub Type of the ABS Transaction Type, designed for the decentralized entry of task orders by various departments, which are then routed through workflow to obtain a central department’s approval. The transaction allows an authorized user within the requesting department (usually the Seller’s Department) the ability to enter the necessary information and route for review and approval. This transaction is very different from the Task Order Setup (TOS) in many respects. Both should be reviewed to see which is the best fit, as one cannot mix the two methods of task order entry.

Within the TK transaction, there are five sections: Header, Vendor (Provider/Seller), Buyer, Posting, and Created Transactions.
