Requisition Attachments

On his Dynamics GP Essentials blog, Mahmoud AlSaadi says when clients using requisition management as a solution to manage Approval Hierarchy, commonly ask for an attachment. However, the problem is Microsoft doesn't provide that simple feature out of the box in Business Portal, Requisition Management.

But AlSaadi says there's a workaround.

He says all you have to do is create a separate SharePoint list that is not at all connected to the requisition management site. But the list has to include the following details:

"Requisition Number: which is the auto number generated when a new requisition is created, unique and could be the primary key.

"Purchase Order Number: once a requisition is finally approved and migrated into Dynamics GP, a purchase order number is generated in GP. This piece of detail can be recorded in the list above for "mapping purposes"

"Attachment: simply attach the files; image, PDF, excel or whatever document you want to keep for a specific requisition."
