Modernizing Procurement: How QAD’s Global Requisition System Transforms Requisition Management
Posted on: May 21, 2025 | By: Alexa Leitner | QAD Business Process, Uncategorized
In today’s fast paced world, procurement in manufacturing and distribution has to be efficient. Many companies, however, still rely on paper forms, email chains and spreadsheets. While that might still work in our modern world, it comes with some serious downsides.
QAD’s Global Requisition System (GRS), when used with the new AUX WebUI, offers a better way. You get an automated digital workflow that matches how your business operates.
Here are three reasons to ditch your old, outdated methods of requisition management and adopt QAD’s GRS in AUX WebUI.
1. Automation and Efficiency
Why it matters: Manual steps and extraneous fields not only slow users down, but they also introduce opportunities for error and confusion.
What GRS does: GRS allows your business to set up approval paths once, and the system handles the routing automatically once a requisition is created. With the AUX WebUI you can hide the fields you don’t need and highlight the ones you do. No development or coding is needed and business users can configure their own layouts. One click, and your requisition is sent to the right people, every time.
2. Policy Enforcement
Why it matters: Uncontrolled spending and off-policy purchases can erode margins and create audit headaches.
What GRS does: GRS is built to enforce your company’s purchasing policies. You set spending limits, define required approvals, and restrict purchases to approved vendors. Once configured, the system applies these rules automatically, helping to reduce non-compliance and giving your company better control over its spending.
3. Visibility and Communication
Why it matters: Lack of clarity and visibility around requisition status can breed frustration (“Is it on John’s desk or lost in his inbox?”) and stalls business.
What GRS does: Approvers receive email notifications when action is needed, and users can see the real-time status of their requisitions right in the system. Everyone stays informed and nothing gets lost in the shuffle.
And with convenience of QAD’s mobile app, it’s even easier to keep things moving. Managers and approvers are able to review and approve requisitions from anywhere—whether they’re in a meeting, traveling, or working remotely. Allowing your team the flexibility to avoid bottlenecks and keep the purchasing process flowing, no matter where they are working from.
Conclusion
QAD’s GRS within the AUX WebUI offers a smarter, more efficient way to streamline the procurement process—making it easier to create, approve, and track requisitions, all while enforcing company policies and improving visibility.
