Transaction Status

FOIDOCH is a wonderful tool that can tell you

• the status of your Banner Requisition;
• whether your Purchase Order (PO) has been issued;
• whether your items have been received; and
• whether your invoice has been paid.

It can also display your Requisition or PO.

To access FOIDOCH

• At the "Go To" field type FOIDOCH.
• Press "Enter" on your keyboard.
• At the "Doc Type" field, enter the appropriate type:
  • REQ = Requisition
  • PO = Purchase Order
  • INV = Invoice
  • RCV = Receiving Document
• Tab once to the "Doc Code" field.
• Enter your document number (example: R0000678 for a Requisition)
• Click "Next Section"

The appropriate fields will be populated based on the status of your order. To the right of each number field is a "Status Indicator" field. To see the list of Status Codes:

• Click on the word "Options" on the top row of your screen.
• Choose "View Status Indicators"

You will see a box containing all the "Status Indicators" and what each one means. Your can also query (view only) the document from the same "Options" menu by:

• Choose "Requisition Info" (FPIREQN).
• When you see the "Requisition Query" screen, click "Next Block".

You can not "Next Block" through the Requisition document in query mode.

Is there a way to know if the payee has received the check? Unless the payee notifies you otherwise, you should assume that once the check has been issued, it will be received.
