Edit a Requisition
Once you click Save on the Requisition New screen, two new tabs appear and some of the fields on Maintab change. See below for more information on editing the Main and Details tabs for a new or existing requisition. See the topic on the Requisition (TMS Enterprise) standard form for full descriptions of each of the fields on that form and many of the fields that appear on custom forms for the Requisitions module.
If you are not already in Requisition Edit, go to Purchasing > Requisitions > Edit and typing in the number of the requisition to which you want to add a line item. You can also go to Purchasing > Requisitions > Query, and search for the requisition, if you don't know the Requisition Number.
