Procurement management suite

Requisition management

Simplify complex purchasing with automated requests, approvals, and vendor bidding.

What it is

Requisitions for nonprofits

When requests come in from many staff, sites, and programs, purchasing by email and spreadsheet quickly gets out of hand. NonProfit+ requisition management, built on Acumatica, gives you one place to collect requests, get vendor bids, approve quotes, issue purchase orders, and receive goods, so every request has an owner and a paper trail.

Request classes and predefined item lists keep staff ordering the right things, approval maps route each request to the right people, and bids from multiple vendors can be compared side by side. Once a requisition is approved, it becomes a purchase order with no re-entry.

  • Replace email and spreadsheet requests with one tracked process.
  • Limit staff to approved items or let them describe what they need.
  • Get bids from several vendors and award the whole order or individual lines.
  • Convert approved requisitions into purchase orders in a click.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Can we control what staff are allowed to request?

Yes. Predefined request lists limit each user to specific items, request classes set default restrictions, and the catalog can be hidden so staff must describe items manually.

How does vendor bidding work?

Requests for quote are emailed to multiple vendors, including vendors not yet in the system. You can award the whole requisition to one vendor or split line items among several, and winning bids become purchase orders.

Can staff request services as well as goods?

Yes. Non-stock items such as office supplies or contracted services can be requested through the same process.

What happens after a requisition is approved?

Approved requisitions convert directly into purchase orders, with shipping instructions for the location where items are needed. Everything stays linked back to the original request.
