Besides the Universal Requestor (UR) Document Code, the Standard Requisition (RQS) is the most commonly used delivered Document Code for requesting goods and services. The Standard Requisition is delivered with an Event Type that will automatically pre-encumber the funds when making the request. The Standard Requisition can be created directly from the Document Catalog or generated as a result of processing a Universal Requestor (UR) document.
There can be one or more Commodity Lines within a single RQ document. An Accounting Line has to be defined within a single Commodity Line. However multiple Accounting Lines can be associated with each Commodity Line.
A requisition must have at least one line item and is subject to the maximum line limit on the Document Component Requirements (DCREQ) table in the Administration Application. The actual number of records permitted for any document section of the RQ Document Type is controlled by records with a Property of MAX_LINE_LIMIT on the Document Component Requirements (DCREQ) table in the Administration Application.
The Standard Requisition (RQS) Document Code is comprised of the following sections:
Header (only 1)
Accounting Distribution (0 - n)
Vendor (0 - n)
Commodity Group (1 - n)
Commodity (1 - n)
Accounting (1 - n)
Special Instructions (0 - n)
Free Form Vendors (0 - n)
