Purchase Request (PR)
A purchase request serves as a formal document that captures the details of an intended
procurement, such as the materials or services required, and is a fundamental part of the
purchasing process. Makeen, an automated system, streamlines the process of creating and
managing these requests, ensuring that they adhere to predetermined quality and cost
criteria. As employees submit their requests to procure goods or services from vendors,
Makeen helps maintain compliance with internal policies and standards. In some cases,
companies may have a review and approval process in place for these requests to assess their validity and alignment with budgetary constraints. Once a request obtains the
necessary approvals, it transitions into a purchase order, officially authorizing the acquisition.

Approvals
Approval routing is a system that determines which individuals have the authority to grant
approval for employee purchase requests, based on their authorization level and the
department they belong to. Approvers receive notifications when there are pending
requests requiring their approval, and backup approvers can be designated to step in when
necessary, thereby preventing delays or obstacles in the approval process. These approval
procedures can be configured according to the dollar amount allocated to the employee, or
more complex workflows can be designed to take into account factors like departmental
budgets, location, item categories, or project specifications.
Request for Quote (RFQ)
Makeen's RFQ feature streamlines the entire procurement process by providing users with a
centralized platform. This includes tasks such as collating requirements, vendor selection,
specification communication, bid reception, and price updates. When a supplier is chosen,
the system ensures seamless integration of all pertinent information into both vendor and
item records. Additionally, users have the capability to generate purchasing contracts and
employ workflows in instances necessitating approvals.
