Requisition approved, but no purchase order was created

Oracle lists the conditions that stop a line from becoming an order automatically:

• the line has no valid buyer;
• the line requires negotiation;
• the line has no supplier or supplier site;
• the item is not purchasable in the default inventory organization of the procurement BU;
• the line uses a procurement card that is inactive, or the supplier site does not accept cards, or an active financial orchestration flow exists;
• it is an emergency request and the emergency order already exists;
• the line has no valid source agreement;
• it is sourced to a contract purchase agreement but the Negotiated check box on the line is not selected;
• the source agreement does not have Automatically generate orders selected;
• Consolidate Online Requisitions into Few Purchase Orders is enabled, the agreement has Group requisitions selected, and the Generate Orders process has not been run.

1. Open the requisition line and check it has a buyer. No buyer is the most common reason.
2. Check the line has a supplier and a supplier site.
3. If the line is sourced to an agreement, open the agreement: it must be valid, and Automatically generate orders must be selected. For a contract agreement, the Negotiated check box on the requisition line must be selected.
4. If your procurement BU consolidates requisitions and the agreement groups them, run the Generate Orders scheduled process. The order is created when it runs, not when the requisition is approved.
5. If none of these apply, the buyer can still create the order by hand from Process Requisitions.
