Benefits of iProcurement
Receiving and making corrections to receipts has never
been easier.
IP is web based for ease of access and resembles many
internet shopping sites.
Navigating through the IP system is done by clicking
buttons and links as opposed to opening and closing
forms.

selected requisition as a template. Use
this to create a duplicate requisition.

Conclusion
Oracle’s self service iProcurement
application is designed to make it easier for
a requestor to create requisitions.
There is a very informative home page that
acts as the starting point for the requestor’s
processes.
Both shopping and receiving have been
made easier for the requestor.

Conclusion
Core users typically find it easier to understand and to
use since the IP application takes you step-by-step
through each process with simple steps.
Instructions are often given on each page.
People new to Oracle will find it easy to understand and
seasoned core users will find it easy to transition to.
This is not a replacement or a substitute for PO. It is simply an additional “strap on” module.
From left to right and top to bottom, the iProcurement home page is loaded with information to help the requestor create requisitions. Although the look is unlike anything seen in the core application, it is well laid out and users should be able to easily access the information and tools they need.
