Request Statuses

Overview

Statuses are generally used as signals to track the progress of a given Procurement Request. Here are the 7 core statuses used to track a request on Datum:

1. Draft - a Procurement Request that is currently being drafted by the requester, and is not yet ready for sourcing.

2. Submitted - a Procurement Request that has been submitted by a requester and is ready for review. Typically a request will be assigned to a primary owner before moving onto the next status

3. Quoting - a Procurement Request with parts/services that are actively being sourced by the assignee. Typically includes requests that are within the quoting & bid-review phases

4. Ready for PO - a Procurement Request that has a purchase order that is ready to be issued, but has not yet been issued. Typically includes requests that have a down-selected/approved quote that can be converted into a Purchase Order.

5. Ordered - a Procurement Request that has at least 1 purchase order that has been issued to the supplier.

6. Delivered - a Procurement Request where all associated orders have been marked as "Delivered"

7. Canceled - a Procurement Request that has been canceled by a stakeholder. For more information, please see Manage Requests.
