RQ500 - Requisition Interface
**Form Purpose
Run Requisition Interface (RQ500) to import requisitions from a non-Lawson
system into the Requisition system.
**Processing Effect
The loaded requisitions must pass through all the required requisition edits.
If an inventory item is not available in the requested quantity, the system
determines whether a replacement can be made. If the item is not available in
the requested quantity and there is a replacement item for the original item,
the system makes a replacement. In addition, if needed, the system places any
remaining quantities on backorder for the replacement item. No messages
display to indicate replacements, substitutions, or backorders.
The program prints the requester and requisition number for requisitions that
processed successfully. Additional header or line detail is printed for
requisitions with exceptions. Drill around capabilities are provided for you
to view additional requisition detail from the report.
Run this program in report mode or in update mode. Report mode lets you
review and correct exceptions before updating the database. When you run in
update mode, the input file is deleted when processing is complete.
Any records with exceptions are written to an error file named
RQ500MTDYHRMNSC. In this file name, MT is the month, DY is the day, HR is the
hour, MN is the minute, and SC is the second when the program started. You
may correct the exceptions, either in the database or in the input file, and
rerun the program for the input file.
You can run RQ500 (Requisition Interface) to process files uploaded by the
handheld terminal and routed to RQ500 by IC588 (Handheld Processing). To
process handheld terminal transactions, you must set up RQ500 jobs and
parameters according to the requirements for handheld processing. For details
on preparing RQ500 for handheld processing, see the Procurement Management
Technical Guide.
For instructions on error processing for requisition interface records, see
the Requisitions Procedures Manual.
**Troubleshooting
For abnormal terminations (jobs needing recovery), such as might occur from a
hard drive head crash, the system creates an error print file. However, jobs
that need recovery are not available in Print Manager. The abnormally
terminated job resides in the normal Lawson print directory,
($LAWDIR/print/user/jobname/jobstep), and can be viewed with the lashow
command. To recover, you rerun the job. The interface program automatically
appends the output from the recovery run to the output from the original run.
In the print file, a page break separates the recovery run from the original
output. Date and time stamps on the page headers also indicate whether the
page is from the original or recovery run.
**More Information
If you create released (not zip-released) requisitions, note the following
Enterprise Workflow services.
If the Enterprise Workflow Requisition Approval service is enabled, you can
send a requisition approval request when you release the requisition. The
Enterprise Workflow Requisition Approval service sends the request in the form
of an E-mail or work object. For more information, see the Requisitions
Procedures Manual.
If the Enterprise Workflow Rush Item service is enabled, you can send a rush
item request in the form of an E-mail or work object when you release the
requisition. For more information, see the Requisitions Procedures Manual.
