To authorize a stores requisition list, open the Stores Requisition Lists browse and highlight the requisition list header. In the upper browse, select Authorize from the Action menu.

If the Authorization action is enabled on the More Inventory tab in General|Business Units|Sites, the system prevents parts from being issued from any stores requisition lists that have not been authorized. See Sites: More Inventory Tab.

The system also allows you to restrict the users who can authorize stores requisition lists in System Administration|Roles|Inventory|Stores Requisition Lists|Authorize. See Roles. When a stores requisition is authorized for the first time, all users in the Stores Requisition Approval Group with E-mail? selected receive an e-mail notification that there is a stores requisition to approve. After one of the users in the group authorizes the requisition, the authorization status shows “approved” and all other users are skipped. To see the user that approved the stores requisition list and others that were skipped, view the Routing submenu.
