Purchase Requisition Approval
Approving purchases before they are committed keeps spend visible and on-budget. This requisition SOP gives teams a clear path from a purchase need to an issued PO, with the right approvals based on budget.
A requester submits the requisition, which is checked against the department budget. In-budget requests go to the manager; over-budget requests escalate to finance for special approval first. Approved requisitions become a PO raised by procurement.
