FF.001.1 Requisition Processing/Review (Project Archive)

User Acceptance Test Overview

PeopleSoft Requisitions are designed so system users without detailed purchasing knowledge can still help in the procurement process. Requisitions require less data to be submitted on the front-end (compared to a Purchase Order) and allows for more flexibility in editing. This lets a wider range of users submit data that can be finalized and eventually used to create Purchase Orders. It adds an extra layer to solidify the purchasing process. Requisition’s final goal is to be turned into a Purchase Order.

The information below is intended to provide colleges guidance on performing a User Acceptance Test on this business process. The business process shown in the flow diagrams below may be only part of what is needed to complete an end-to-end test of a full business cycle.

To use this UAT guide first review the business process flow diagram below, which outlines the various steps to complete the test activities. Note that the business process flow diagram has distinct places where one can start testing this process, noted by a green 'Start' circle. Use the diagram, following the arrows to each step that must be executed. Use the Quick Reference Guide (QRGs) links, also below, to find the instructions on how to execute each step. The Quick Reference Guides are numbered to match each box on the flow diagram to assistant testers with following the flow of the business process. Once testing is complete for each box on the flow diagram, click the link in the Next Step (Tier 2) in the High Level UAT Framework section to access the next UAT Guide.
