# Purchase Requisition

A Purchase Requisition (PR) is used to formally request the procurement of items or services required for business operations before a Purchase Order is created. It helps organizations track, review, approve, and manage procurement requests through a structured workflow.

For example, an employee can submit a Purchase Requisition to request laptops, software licenses, networking devices, office equipment, or vendor services. Once submitted, the PR moves through the configured approval workflow before proceeding to the procurement or Purchase Order stage.

It is commonly used for:

* Hardware procurement requests
* Software or license requests
* Vendor service requests
* Office and operational purchases
* Internal approval-based procurement processes

Unlike a [Purchase Order,](/infraon-help/infinity-user-guide/purchase-aquisition/purchase-order.md) which is issued to a vendor to confirm procurement, a Purchase Requisition is an internal request used for approval and procurement planning before the actual purchase process begins.

## **How does it work?**

A Purchase Requisition follows a workflow-driven process in which each PR moves through predefined stages based on the configured [workflow ](/infraon-help/infinity-user-guide/infraon-configuration/infraon-automation/workflow.md)and approval conditions. Users can create PRs, add line items, configure vendor and address details, submit the PR for approval, and track the approval status from the PR view page.
