On the ‘Items’ tab of a plan, you can edit the plan items and create a purchase.
Requested items
Select the requested items and make the necessary changes. Items can be deleted, moved or rejected. You can also merge multiple items into a single item to be purchased. More detailed description of the functions:
-
Delete: Deletes the item from the plan. The item returns to the purchase request for selection.
-
Move to be acquired: Move the requested items to the plan so that you can create a purchase based on them. Select one of the following:
-
Move to ungrouped items: The requested item will be moved to the items to be purchased without a group
-
Move to a new group: The requested item will be moved to the items to be purchased, and a group will be created for the item. Other requested items can also be added to the group.

-
Merge: Select two requested items and merge them into a single item to be purchased
-
Create a new item to be purchased by merging

Reject: The item can be rejected from the plan.

The item will still appear on the plan, but its status will change to ‘Rejected’. A comment can be written in connection with the rejection. However, the user must first subscribe to the comments in the alarm settings, otherwise no e-mail will be sent to the recipient of the request from the system.
