In Sage X3, we have a function called the planning workbench to create purchase orders, requests, and suggestions. This function gives us a view of projected stock movement based on actual demands.
We will now create a purchase request from the planning workbench function.
Navigate to: Purchasing > Supply > Planning workbench
Enter the site and product, and click on the Supply button on the top right.
After clicking on the Supply button new screens will open as below.
Enter the mandatory details like order site, product, supplier, request date and quantity then click on the Request button.
We have entered the mandatory details and given purchase quantity 10. So, after clicking on the Request button system will generate a purchase request with respect to the given details.
The system creates a purchase request PRQZA0110050
We can find this request in the purchase request function.
Navigate to: Purchasing > Purchase requests > Purchase requests.
