Assigning Vendors to a Purchase Requisition

Once a PR is released, go to Assign Vendor, pick the line item, and assign one or more approved vendors before moving to RFQ.

Steps:

1. Open Assign Vendor, find the PR line item.
2. Confirm status shows "Purchaser Assigned."
3. Search and select vendor(s) — assign 2–3 for competitive comparison.
4. Save — the item is ready for Request for Quotation.

FAQ

Can I assign multiple vendors?
