Change Management for Internal Requisitions

In Release 12.1.1, processing for internal orders has been enhanced to offer additional and better-coordinated change management capabilities. Now, quantity or date information can be updated by either the Requesting or Fulfillment organization and the updates will be accurately reflected on both the internal requisition and the internal sales order. In addition, support is now provided for the cancellation of internal transfer requests. All of these changes will now be visible throughout the planning, purchasing and order fulfillment workbenches. A Requester can update Quantity and Need-By Date of an approved internal requisition. If desired, tolerances can be set for automatic approval of updates made to the internal requisition.
Many new synchronization features are provided. Quantity and Need-By Date changes
on the internal requisition line are automatically propagated to the internal sales order and vice versa. Cascading of an internal sales order Schedule Ship/Arrival date with the internal requisition is may be controlled through a profile option. Cancellation of an internal requisition/line will automatically cancel the corresponding internal sales order/line and vice versa. And finally, the urgent flag on the internal requisition line will flow onto the internal sales order line as the shipment priority, based on a profile option setting.
