After the Requestor submits a shopping cart as a requisition, Paw Procurement will route the requisition to the department’s financial Approver. The system an email notification to the approver when a requisition is pending approval.
To approve requisitions by email, open the email and select the Take Action button (See Setting Up Email Approval Code to enable this button). This will open a detailed summary of the requisition and allow you to immediately approve/reject, assign to yourself (in order to make edits/comments), or send it back to the requestor after entering your approval code. It should be noted that all edits and comments for the requisition are only able to be made after logging in to PPS, and are not able to be made directly from the email. If the requisition no longer has an Approve option available, it has already been approved by someone else with financial approval authorization for the department. The additional approvers appear under the Other Approvers section.
To approve requisitions from the Paw Procurement System, click the Action Items flag at the top right of your screen (or go to the corresponding section of your dashboard). You can also use the menu on the left and go to Orders -> Approvals -> Requisitions to Approve. The requisitions will be organized into folders that you can filter and also organize as a list. Assign a requisition to yourself in order to edit, approve/reject, or return it (requisitions you can’t assign or approve have already been taken by someone else).
