Inventory

• The Requisition Approval Routing Form Listname field previously was a self referencing list and has been converted to a Form Security picklist. If the Picklist was already in use, then no changes occur to the picklist set up. If the Form Security picklist was empty, then it will be created and populated using a distinct set of routing List Name values from the setup form. Furthermore, the List Name drop down box on the Requisition Form now shows both the List Name value and the List Description (when different thant the value) from the Requisition Approval Routing Form Security setup. The advantage is that a shorter list name can be used while including a longer description allowing for quick search in the Requisition List Name field (example. List Name = Maintenance, List Description = Dept 1001, 1002, 1003, 1004, etc allowing for searching on Maint or 1003 or 1004) (5/15)
