5.8 Quick Save

Quick Save functionality allows you to temporarily store the contents of your current Requisition and retain that information until the requisition is manually cleared or submitted.

This feature ensures that your work is not lost if you log out or are timed out of PECOS before submitting your requisition.

There are a number of reasons why you might want to Quick Save:

PECOS has a security feature that will automatically log you out after a period of inactivity. The default time out period is 20 minutes.
You may wish to log out and complete your requisition at a later time.
You may accidentally close down your browser window and log out.
Your network or internet connection may, inadvertently, be lost.

After quick saving you can safely log out. When you log back into PECOS P2P your saved Requisition will automatically load.

The system will also assign a temporary requisition number to a Quick Saved Requisition, which can be accessed from the Status and Order Tasks Page.

Only one requisition can be temporarily quick saved. Each time that you use the quick save feature any existing requisition that you may have previously saved will be overwritten.

Once you submit your requisition any quick saved requisition will be deleted from ‘temporary memory’ and the temporary requisition number will be replaced with the actual requisition number for the submitted requisition.

Please keep in mind that this is only a temporary holding feature. If you would like to save your requisition longer term then you can store it as a Template.
