Material Requisition Number

The Material Requisition Number formatter is designed to control how the Requisition No field is filled out in the Material Requisition module. When formatting requisition numbers, consider how many requisitions you will receive per year, per month, etc.  Then decide how often you want your requisition numbers reset (yearly, monthly, daily).

Yearly Formatting: YY- XXXXXX (e.g. 06-000001)

Monthly Formatting: YY-MM-XXXX (e.g. 06- 08-0001)

Daily Formatting: YY-MMDD-XXX (e.g. 06-0801-001)

3. Click on the module toolbar to enter Edit Mode.
4. Begin formatting the request number by selecting an option from each group (Year, Month, Day, Special Characters, and Sequence).
5. Click to save the changes.
