Edit Unopened Requisition Requests

You can view your new requisitions, monitor your open requisitions and edit any unopened requisitions.

You can view a requisition status in the Request Status field. Whenever the requisition status changes, the Request Status field is updated.

You can only edit requisition requests that have a status of "New."

After you submit an open requisition, the resource manager receives notification to work on the request. If a requisition is for a named resource, the named resource is automatically added to the resource list for the requisition when the status changes to "Open." The resource is selected or "Proposed."

See the Resource Management User Guide for more information.

You can delete resource requisitions at any time and in any state. You can also delete requisitions with approved bookings. The results of the booking (for example, the team members that got hard-booked to the project) remain. The record of the booking transaction (for example, the requisition itself) can be deleted. To delete a requisition, select the check box and click Delete.
