When you save your record, all the selections made on the screen are stored with the parameter ID. Later, you can retrieve the parameter using Query.

You can use the parameter to run the process more efficiently because you can select the parameter ID with its previously defined screen selections. After the default selections display on the screen, you can override the defaults.

Select this option to manually select the requisitions to be downloaded. Requisition information will be exported based on the setting in the Selection Ranges group box.

Select this option to include requisition data that changed later than the Last Export Date/Time (that is, the last time this process was run with the Update Last Export Date/Time check box selected). The application will export only those requisitions that have a time stamp later than the requisition export date and time.

This field displays the date and time in which the most recent requisition information was exported with the Update Last Export Date/Time check box selected.

If you run the application and the Update Last Export Date/Time check box is selected, the Last Export Date/Time field will be updated with the last date and time that the export files were created.

Select this check box to prevent future downloads from including any requisition changes made prior to the Last Export Date/Time. If you select this check box and process the application, the Last Export Date/Time field will update with the date and time in which the most requisition information was successfully processed and exported to the export file.

Select this check box to export all approved requisitions for the selected requisition ID range in the Selection Ranges group box.

Select this check box to export all pending requisitions for the selected requisition ID range in the Selection Ranges group box. If you select this check box, the Modifiable in eProcurement check box will be enabled. If you process the application with this check box selected, all pending requisitions (in the Selection Range) will be changed to In-Approval.

This check box is enabled when the Export Pending Requisitions check box is selected. Select this check box to allow the exported requisitions to be modified in the eProcurement system. If this check box is clear, set OVERRIDE STATUS in the export file to NULL; Else if check box is selected, set it to REQH. In order for the requisition to be modifiable in eProcurement, the requisition record(s) must have the eProcurement option selected in the Export field in the Other Information tab in the Manage Purchase Requisitions screen in Costpoint Procurement Planning.

Select this option to include only those requisitions with an export code of eProcurements in the on the Manage Purchase Requisitions screen.

Select this option to set the export code of the downloaded requisitions as eProcurement on the Manage Purchase Requisitions screen. This option will also update the requisition in the Requisition Header table where Time Stamp is the date and time the record was downloaded, and the Modified By is the user ID of the person who downloaded the requisition.

Enter the name that you would like to assign to this requisition file. This field is enabled if the Auto-Name File check box is clear.

Enter the location of the file you are exporting. There are two ways to do this:

• In the File Location field, enter, or click to select, the alternate file location where you want to store the export file. Alternate file locations are set up on the Manage Alternate File Locations screen.
• Leave the File Location field blank. When you execute this application, the export file is saved to the Costpoint database. Use the Export Files application to retrieve it and save it to a location on the network.

If this check box is selected, the File Name field will be disabled, and Costpoint will automatically assign the exported file name(s) once you run the process.

The requisition file name will be "REQ_MMDDYYHHMMT.TXT". "MMDDYY" represents the system month, day and year. The "HHMM" represents the hour and minute the export ID file was generated (PM hours is expressed as 13 to 23). The "T" character will display "A" to represent "Append” as an update option.

Select this check box if you want to overwrite any existing requisition file with the same file name.

Click and select Export eProcurement Requisitions to initiate the export process.

After you populate the fields on this screen and click on the toolbar, the application exports the requisition data from Costpoint based on the requisition and procurement types selection options entered on the screen, and exports this information into one delimited fixed format data (.DAT) file named "INBRQMMYYHHMMT.DAT."

The application creates the file and downloads it to the network location that is specified in the File Location field. The file will include your organization's eProcurement customer ID (located in the EPROCURE_EXP_LOG table) to ensure the proper rows are updated in the eProcurement database.
