Material Requistion
Click on the Services tab to review the quantity to buy and click on Generate MatReq as shown in the image below.

Then click on Tools and Process to see the same form shown below.

Click the Proceed button to generate the Mat Req records. You will received a Documents Generated prompt when processing is complete.
Open the Mat Req module and use the Item Type combo to filter by SubContract-Child. This will populate the Mat Req form exclusively with items required by sub contract documents. Check the Include checkbox and open the Tools menu and select Generate Purchase Order to generate a purchase order for the sub contract service.

Automatic Generation of Purchase Orders
While generating Mat Req records is an excellent method to use when consolidating multiple purchase order items purchased from the same vendor; there may be occasions where consolidation may not be feasible or desirable. In these cases, generating a mat req is an extra step which can be avoided by generating the purchase order directly from the sub contracting module.
To automatically generate a purchase order, follow all the same steps you would normally follow until you get to the processing form. Simply check the Auto Generate PO check box as illustrated below.

After processing is complete you will be prompted with the purchase order number(s).
