A Quick Look At Purchase Requisition in SAP
Purchase Requisition in SAP Supply Planning
In SAP, a Purchase Requisition is an internal request to the purchasing team to source specific materials or services from external suppliers.
What It Does
It’s triggered during Supply and Demand Matching and acts as a bridge between planning and procurement. It tells the system:
- What needs to be bought
- How much is required
- When it’s needed
This ensures that materials arrive on time to meet production or service needs.
How It’s Created
The requisition is automatically derived from procurement planning orders, meaning it’s based on real-time demand forecasts or planning data.
Why It Matters
Purchase Requisitions streamline external procurement by giving purchasing departments clear, structured requirements—cutting delays and errors in the sourcing process.
Final Thoughts
Think of it as the system’s way of saying: “We need this, by this date—go get it.” It’s not a purchase order yet, but it’s the critical first step.
