Purchase Order Department is Different Than Original Requisition

Purchase Order Department is Different Than Original Requisition

Description of Issue

We created a Requisition. When the Requisition converted, the Purchase Order's Purchasing Department was changed.

Context
  • Requisitions

  • Purchase Orders

  • Purchasing Department

Cause

Go to Requisitions or Requisition Entry Program

Financials > Purchasing > Purchase Order Processing > Requisitions/Requisition Entry

  1. Search the Requisition 

  2. Click on the Line Item

    1. In Requisition Entry you will see the Department Code in Miscellaneous to the right of the screen

    2. In Requisitions you will have to scroll to the bottom and expand Optional Details

  3. You will see that the Department on the Line item detail differs from the header in the Requisitions/Requisition Entry program

  4. The Line Department will match your PO's Department

  5. The Line Item detail is overriding your header information on the conversion

Resolution

Your user had two different department codes. When the requsition converted, MUNIS updated the PO to follow the line detail information.

Your user will have to change the department code to match the header to prevent this from happening.
