Intro to OLR and dPRs Tutorial

dPR/OLR-Overview

dPRs (departmental Purchase Requisitions) are created using the OLR (OnLine Requisitioning System). OLR is part of the FPR (Purchasing) Module of FRS. Creating a dPR requires that you fill out 4 (sometimes 5) screens. These screens are all linked, meaning that once you've completed one, pressing ENTER once or twice will take you to the next screen. Following is a description of the dPR Create screens.

The next slide shows the process pictorially.

Step Screen Function
1 29H-Header Use this screen to identify who's creating the dPR, who's ordered the merchandise and where the merchandise should be delivered. You also use this screen when you will be using Document Funding.
2 29V-Vendor Use this screen to identify the vendor.
3 29L-Lines Use this screen to identify what you are ordering, quantity, unit of measure, unit price and description. When desired, you can use this screen for Line Item Funding.
3.a. 03A-Session Open/Close Use this screen to make it possible for your FRS account to receive the dPR transaction. It will show up the first time you are creating a dPR this time on FRS. So, if you sit down to create 3 dPRs. The first dPR will take you to screen 03A. The second and third will bypass 03A and take you directly to 29T. Basically, if you do not see 03A, do not worry about it. It knows when it needs to be completed.
4 29T-Trailer Trailer means complete, use the Trailer screen to finish the dPR. Trailering:
  1. Forwards the dPR for approval, at least one department approver and if the dPR is $1000 or more, to the fund accountant-signatures can be viewed on screen 29S
  2. And if the dPR is greater than 0, the dPR is encumbered on your account.
