UCSFBBTip
  
Q: I am a Requisition Approver with a requisition pending my approval. I noticed that some information is incorrect on the requisition. Can I edit the requisition before approving the requisition?
  
A: Requisitions Approvers cannot edit requisitions pending their approval. They can only approve, return, reject, or partially reject a requisition. If there is incorrect information on the requisition, Requisition Approvers can return the requisition to the Requester. The Requester can edit the requisition and then resubmit the requisition for approval. Details on how Requisition Approvers can return a requisition are available in the Requisition Approver Quick Reference Guide on the Supply Chain Management website.
  

When returning a requisition, Requisition Approvers should communicate with the Requester so s/he understands why the requisition is being returned. Requisition Approvers can contact the Requester in person, via telephone, email, etc. Alternatively, Requisition Approvers can also include a BearBuy comment when returning the requisition to explain the edits that the Requesters need to make.
