At Winsted Company the following procedures are used to enter purchase requisitions (PRs).

Clerks in the purchasing department receive purchase requisitions (PRs) from departments throughout Winsteds home office. The PRs are handwritten on forms specially designed for this purpose. The clerks enter these into preformatted screens on PCs that are connected to the central computer. After each PR is recorded on the purchase requisition event data store the computer informs the clerk that the PRs have been recorded. Once recorded the computer forwards the PRs to appropriate managers who can approve the PRs online. Approving individuals enter their approvals (or denials). PRs that are not approved are sent back to the purchasing clerks for corrective action.
