I created a requisition but still don't see a buyer assigned to it. Why haven't I received a purchase order?

To see where your requisition is in the approval process, open it up in B2P and scroll down to the Approval Chain. The current approval group will be highlighted in blue. Hover your cursor over the name of the approval group to view the names of the people authorized to approve your requisition.

I created a requisition and a buyer is assigned to it. Why hasn't the purchase order number been issued yet?

There are reasons why the creation of a purchase order would be delayed. Contact the specific buyer assigned to your requisition to determine if additional documentation is required.

How can someone approve in B2P on my behalf if I am planning to be away from work?

Approvers can go to Settings > Delegates to delegate approvers for times they will not be accessing the system. Go to [Your Name] in the upper right and select Settings. Under Delegates, assign the individual who can approve on your behalf and the timeframe you will be away. Note that this setting makes no changes to the Roles Database; it is a temporary authorization set from within the B2P system.
