Integrator Setup
• Requisition object– Customize attributes
• userFieldText40 Approving users– Custom Logic edit – Requestor must be in Approver file
• userFieldDate 1 Approving Date– Custom Logic edit – Not maintainable from client
• userFieldSwitchA Requisition status– Custom Logic Status codes must be used in order– Discrete Domain
Requistion Status List
Attributes
• Reference Capital Project Number– If not blank, authorization process will
use the limit for capital projects for the requestor
• Required entry attributes– Unit – Nature– Extended Amount
User Exit Code
• User exit code– N program – Edit Buffer
