POBU - OPEN
Establishing a Date Range to Allow Requisition Entries
A budget period that is open to purchasing may be established by entering a common code with a specified date range. This enables a window of time where Purchase Requisitions and Warehouse orders may be entered. This common code only restricts the Request By date in POUPPR and is what determines the budget to check against. In order to restrict by the PO Print date, the NU common code with a Code Category/Value of NUDT/PO20 will need to be created (a variation of NUDT/Questno).
