Requisition file maintenance begins when a requisition is placed in which file?

Requisition file maintenance begins with placing a requisition in the Material Outstanding File. This file is essential for tracking requisitions that have been submitted but not yet fulfilled. By maintaining requisitions in this file, it allows for centralized oversight and management of all outstanding material requests. This is crucial for ensuring that supply chain processes remain efficient and that any delays or issues with requisition fulfillment can be monitored and addressed promptly.

Tracking requisitions from the moment they enter the Material Outstanding File helps logistics specialists prioritize actions, communicate with supply sources, and keep operational workflows on track. Each requisition can be updated as it moves through the supply process, reflecting real-time status, making it easier to manage supply levels and anticipate future procurement needs.
