**A Purchase Requisition** is a document submitted by an employee to request the purchase of goods or services on behalf of the company. These purchases may be for business operations, inventory, or to manufacture supplies for sale. Submitting a purchase requisition form sets off the purchasing process.
To learn more about how to create a Purchase Requisition, follow [this link](https://help.precoro.com/how-to-create-a-purchase-requisition-and-track-it-1?hsLang=en).
### Track Purchase Requisitions Using Statuses and Roles
All operations with Purchase Requisitions can be tracked by status. The PR document has 7 statuses:
1. **Draft** —Purchase Request was created but not submitted yet. The initiator is still working on it.
2. **Pending** — the document was submitted and is waiting for approval from the authorized user.
3. **Approved** — all responsible users have approved the Purchase Requisition.
4. **Completed** —there is a completed Purchase Order/Orders for all requested items, or PR is[manually marked as completed](https://help.precoro.com/how-to-manually-complete-purchase-requisition?hsLang=en).
5. **Rejected** — the document or all items were rejected at the PR approval stage or Purchase Order creation stage.
6. **In Revision** — a reviewer (either the Purchase Requisition’s initiator or approver) is editing the document, adding or removing items.
7. **Canceled** — the initiator/approver revoked the whole document after it was approved.
Please note if the Purchase Requisitions module is deactivated, documents in **Pending** or **In Revision** status will be automatically set to **Closed**. Additionally, PRs with **In Revision** status and related completed POs will be marked as **Completed**, as the purchasing process has already been finalized.
Each user can have a role relevant to their task. There are 3 roles:
1. **Viewer** — grants document viewing rights without editing or approving options.
2. **Creator** — allows document creation and editing.
3. **Approver** — allows approving the documents created by other users.
To learn more about how to work with users and roles in PR documents, read [this article](https://help.precoro.com/managing-and-editing-documents-by-roles-and-statuses?hsLang=en).
Precoro will also notify you about important document changes with emails.
**Purchase Requisition requesters** will receive a notification letter when somebody creates a Receipt document for the requested items.
The process works as follows:
Requester creates a Purchase Requisition → responsible person creates a Purchase Order from that Requisition → Receipt document for the items is created → Purchase Requisition requester receives a notification to their inbox.
**Important to note:**
- If a user has created a Receipt and added items from different PRs to it, then all the PR Requesters will receive email notifications.
- If at least one item from PR is received or partially received, the requesters will be notified whenever Receipts are created for them.
### Track Purchase Requisitions Using Filters
To expedite and optimize searches you can utilize the advanced or fast set of filters available on every list of documents page.
