Summary
The Purchase Request module is designed to create a request/approval process for equipment and supply orders. It can be used to create requests, including items, suppliers, and prices. Requests can be approved, tracked through to receipt and then details are automatically transferred into the Inventory and Account Transaction modules.
Pre-approved suppliers allows officers to generate suppliers and item lists that are considered “pre-approved” and don’t require multiple quotes. This makes equipment and vendor selection easier for members at the station level.
