Planned Purchase Requisition Maintenance Window

It is to be recalled that the planned purchase requisitions are generated by the MRP calculations and cannot be manually created. A planned purchase requisition can be modified or deleted. It is automatically deleted by a new MRP calculation. Furthermore, a planned purchase requisition can be converted into a firm purchase requisition which will be not deleted by future MRP calculations.

The project number is displayed next to the purchase requisition number for a purchase requisition that is linked to a project.
