Requisition Forms
Create Requisition Forms & Automated Routing to Streamline Request Processes
Requisition forms have transformed in the last decade. The paper requisition form is on its way out—along with the manual, error-prone forms, replaced by intelligent, dynamic digital forms that offer improved performance and tracking. New digital processes change how we think regarding a requisition form's meaning.
The Importance of Requisition Forms
The most common definition of a requisition form is a formal request for an item or service. Companies use requisitions to manage the items and services the organization procures. Typically, you must submit a requisition form to start the purchase order process and have a record of the request.
Requisition forms are essential to the procurement processes within your company. They help prevent fraud and allow management to exercise control over employee purchases. In addition, having a digital audit trail of requisition form submissions helps organizations streamline the process.
Maintenance for paper requisition forms adds to overall operational costs for businesses, especially when old, incorrect paper forms are out in circulation and still being used by staff. By automating and digitizing the documents used during the procurement process, companies can increase efficiency and standardization while adding accountability at every stage.
Common reasons for submitting a requisition form include the following:
-
Supply purchases
-
Expense reimbursements
-
Change order requests
-
Invoice discrepancies

How to Create Requisition Forms in Integrify
Integrify provides users a powerful form designer interface with a palette containing various question types and layout tools to help design your requisition form template. You can drag and drop different questions from the palate onto the form builder interface on the right. You can personalize labels from there to make them more unique to your form.
Users can also set up workflow rules within the requisition form templates based on selected information. After establishing the rules, you preview how your chosen options would work in a real-world scenario. That allows you to create simple or complex forms that simplify end-user workflows.
