Set Up Electronic Requisitions Module

Access this form with Administrative user rights using Organization>Set Up Modules>Electronic Requisitions.

Use this form to enter the Last Requisition Number, which provides the system with a starting number that will be used when a new requisition is created. This number is updated automatically by the system each time a requisition is saved.

Using this form is entirely optional, and the information can be changed at any time.

 

Last Requisition Number: Enter the last requisition number you want the system to use. The system stores the last requisition number (that was used on the Activities>Requisitions>Create/Approve Requisitions form) and then increments to the next number.

When you open the Create/Approve Requisitions form, the system automatically populates the Requisition Number box with the next available number. You can also press the "+" key to have the system automatically increment to the next number.

If you enter an entry that ends with an alpha character, the auto-increment will append it with the number 001 and then increment that number. For example, enter "A7C" as the last requisition number and when you press the + key, the system will display A7C001 - then A7C002.

Requisition Number Options

  • Allow the System to Assign All Requisition Numbers: Select this option to have the system assign requisition numbers when entering a new requisition. Users cannot enter a unique number of their own.
  • Allow Users to Assign Requisition Numbers: Select this option to allow users to enter their own requisition numbers when entering a new requisition. They can either assign their own numbers or use the system-assigned number.

Requisition Email Options

  • SQL/Database Mail: Select this option if a SQL or Database Mail configuration is set upon your machine.
  • SMTP: Select this option if you have set up STMP Email on your machine. The SMTP Connection information must be set up and tested by the Administrator on your machine using Organization>Organization Information>Email Setup tab.

    • Note: With the release of version 2025.4, MAPI compliant email program is no longer supported.
