The Purchase Requisition | Item Request | Prices Confirmation feature significantly improves the efficiency and reliability of purchasing workflows by extending Odoo’s standard Purchase Agreement functionality. A new Purchase Requisition type is introduced, specifically designed for situations where organizations need to request pricing from multiple vendors at once, compare those prices, and manage confirmation statuses with full visibility.
When a Purchase Requisition is created, the system automatically generates RFQs for all selected vendors. This removes manual work and ensures consistency across vendor communications. Users can bulk-send all RFQs by email directly from the requisition, keeping the process centralized and easy to manage.
A key improvement in this feature is the Price Confirmation Status Tracking. Each vendor RFQ now displays its own confirmation stage (such as Pending, Confirmed, or Rejected), giving teams a clear picture of which vendors have responded and which are still pending. These confirmation updates automatically sync back to the Purchase Requisition, ensuring that procurement teams always have an up-to-date overview without needing to manually review every RFQ.
The system also supports synchronized price updates—when a vendor confirms pricing in the RFQ, the status and values reflect immediately in the Purchase Requisition. This makes price comparison faster, more accurate, and easier to manage.
