Based on a purchase requisition, it is possible to directly create a purchase order. This workflow has to be distinguished between the following cases.
Purchase Requisitions Not Linked to Inquiry Requisitions
If no link to inquiry requisitions exists, the PO will be created only based on the requisition for purchase. This primarily means that the PO will not contain any price information and that the prices have been gathered either from any external source (that is, manual input), or that the prices can be found in price agreements or awarded bid.
Purchase Requisitions Linked to Inquiry Requisitions
If a link to an inquiry requisition exists, then all available prices and delivery conditions for all items, also those which were not included in the previous supplements, can be taken over from the awarded bid, if it exists.
