About the Purchase Requisition template
A Purchase Requisition is an internal request that authorizes the procurement team to buy specified goods or services, capturing what is needed, the quantity, the estimated cost, and the budget it draws against. It initiates the purchase-to-pay cycle and creates an audit trail before any external purchase order is issued. Getting it right prevents unauthorized spend, budget overruns, and delays in fulfillment.

Tips & common mistakes
- π‘Always link the requisition to a specific budget or cost code so spend can be tracked against a plan, not discovered after the fact
- π‘Include realistic cost estimates and delivery dates; vague figures cause approval bottlenecks and downstream PO mismatches
- π‘Keep it distinct from a purchase order, a requisition seeks internal approval, while the PO is the commitment sent to the supplier

FAQ
What is the difference between a purchase requisition and a purchase order?οΌ
A purchase requisition is an internal document requesting approval to buy something, while a purchase order is the external, legally binding commitment sent to the supplier once the requisition is approved.
Who approves a purchase requisition?οΌ
Approval usually sits with the relevant budget holder or line manager, and larger amounts may route through additional sign-offs based on the organization's authorization limits.
Do I need a purchase requisition for every purchase?οΌ
That depends on your procurement policy; many organizations require one above a set threshold or for any spend against a project budget, while low-value or petty-cash items may be exempt.
