A purchase requisition app organizes each request into stages — from request to approval — with a history of everything that was purchased. Platforms like [Jestor](https://jestor.com/?ref=blog.jestor.com) bring a ready-made template that structures the requisition into clear steps, instead of email requests and parallel spreadsheets no one checks.

## Why requisitions by email get lost

A purchase request loose in email has no stage, no owner, and leaves no history. When someone asks "where does it stand?", nobody can answer.

The problem is the lack of a single path. With no defined stages, each requisition follows an improvised ritual, and the same purchase is requested twice for lack of visibility.

A dedicated app gives each request a visible status and a record that can be consulted and exported later. Purchasing stops being a favor asked in the hallway and becomes a process.

## What purchase requisition needs to solve

- Standardize how each requisition is opened
- Organize the request into clear stages, from new to approved
- Categorize purchases to make analysis easier
- Keep an exportable history of everything requested
- Avoid duplicate requests for lack of visibility
- Give visibility into progress without having to ask

## How it works in practice

- A requisition intake form with category
- Standardized stages: new, rejected, and approved
- An orders panel with a list by category
- An exportable history and a monthly requisition count
- Filters to track requests by status or period
