Modify a Requisition

Requisitions that have been saved but have not been submitted can be modified. Depending on the bookstore’s administrative settings, you may or may not be able to modify requisitions that have been submitted, approved or posted. You may also be restricted to modifying requisitions you created personally. If you attempt to modify a requisition and find that the buttons that would allow you to edit the requisition are disabled, you will need to contact the bookstore directly to have the requisition modification(s) made.

To modify a requisition you created:

1. Log into the Textbook Requisition system.
   
   
2. All requisitions that have been created using your specific user account will appear on your Textbook Requisitions home page. Click the View link next to the requisition you wish to modify (Fig. 1). Remember that you may only be able to modify requisitions with an Open status.

• Add Textbooks: Click the Add Textbooks link to add textbooks to the requisition. You can use your Book Favorites, the search functionality, or course history to find books. You can also manually add books that do not exist in the Textbook Requisitions database.
