CDK Requisitioning

A Windows-based system for processing requisitions.

CDK Requisitioning allows using schools to enter, approve and process requisitions:

Multi-User: It is designed to be used in a multi-user environment with each user being assigned a set of permissions appropriate to their position in the organization.
Allows users to enter all requisition information including quantities, prices, description of items ordered, preferred vendor and expense accounts (if known and if assigned permission).
Approval chain is completely tailorable to match organizational structure.
Requisitions are tracked through approval process, and approval status is available to the requisitioner.
Completely integrated with CDK for Windows fund accounting software.
When fully approved, requisitions can be converted to Purchase Orders at the business office without retyping information.
Funds are not encumbered until requisition is converted to a Purchase Order.
Users can access expense account status including available amounts before and after considering requisitions currently in approval cycle.
Electronic copies of backup information, such as quotes, catalogue pages, etc., can be attached to the requisition and travel with the requisition through the approval chain to the business office.
