Requisitions
Managing your customers' orders
When a customer orders stock from you, they create an Internal Order in their store. This will appear as a Requisition in your store.
Viewing Customers' Requisition🔗
To know if you have received requisitions from your customers, go to Distribution
> Requisition
You should see a list of all requisitions sent by your customers.
From this screen you can:
- View a list of Requisitions
- Export Requisitions to a
.csv
file
Requisition list🔗
The list of Requisitions is divided into 6 columns:
Column | Description |
---|---|
Name | Name of the Customer |
Number | Reference Number of the requisition |
Created | Creation Date of the requisition |
Status | Current Status of the requisition |
Shipments | Number of shipments created from the requisition |
Comment | Comment for the requisition |
The list can display a fixed number of requisitions per page. On the bottom left corner, you can see how many requisitions are currently displayed on your screen.
If you have more requisitions than the current limit, you can navigate to the other pages by tapping on the page number or using the right of left arrows (bottom right corner).
You can also select a different number of rows to show per page using the option at the bottom right of the page.
Filter Requisitions🔗
You can filter the list of requisitions by name, status or whether shipments have been created. This can be useful if you're looking for one particular requisition!
Select the desired filter(s) from the list:
- Name: Start typing in the field to filter by customer name
- Status: Select a status from the dropdown list
- Shipment created: Toggle on to only show requisitions where shipments have been created
All the requisitions which match the filters will appear in the list.
Exporting Requisitions🔗
The list of Requisitions can be exported to a comma separated file (csv). Simply click the export button (on the right, at the top of the page)
and the file will be downloaded. The export function will download all Requisitions, not just the current page, if you have more than 20 of them.

The requested quantity is also shown, along with the stock item details.
The My Store
tab indicates if the store have enough stock to meet the customer's requested quantity as well as the requested quantities from other customers. The two bars show the following:
The first bar:
- Your stock on hand for this item

, but not yetDelivered
- The quantity being requested for this item in any
Internal Orders
The second bar:
- The quantity being requested for this item in this Requisition
- The quantity being requested in other Requisitions
The Customer
tab shows the customer's stock situation for this item:
- The customer's Target Quantity for this item. This is calculated as: Target MOS x AMC
- The customer's stock on hand for this item
Another way to adjust the supply quantity, is to click the button Supply requested
at the top of the page. This will automatically set the supply quantity to be that of the quantity requested for that item. Click the button and you are asked for confirmation before the adjustment happens:
To create an Outbound Shipment which will supply the items requested, click on the Create Shipment
button. This will create a shipment, add all of the items which are not fully supplied, and then, open that shipment in a new tab. Before doing so, you are prompted to confirm:
If the supply quantity is changed for any item/s in the requisition after a shipment has been made for it and a new shipment is created through clicking the Create Shipment
button, then a new shipment will be created with the remaining supply amount (supply quantity minus any linked Outbound Shipment quantity).
After creating the shipment, you will see the shipment number, along with a link to view it, in the Related documents
section of the additional details panel on the right of the screen.
