What happens last in the Purchase Requisition approval process?

In the Purchase Requisition approval process, the last step that occurs is the certification of funds by the Purchase Requisition Funds Certifier. This step is crucial as it ensures that there are sufficient allocated funds available for the purchase being requested.

The process typically follows a sequence where the Purchase Requisition is first created and may undergo changes if needed. After any necessary adjustments, validation occurs to confirm that all required data is correct and complete. Only after these preliminary steps, the requisition is then routed to the appropriate approvers for their authorization.

Once all approvals are in place, the final action taken is the certification of funds, where the Funds Certifier verifies that the budget allows for the expenses associated with the requisition. This certification is essential to prevent over-expenditure and ensure fiscal responsibility within the organization, making it the last crucial step in the approval process.
