Document background
The Purchase Requisition Form is a fundamental document in Swiss business operations, used to initiate the procurement process in accordance with Swiss commercial law. This document serves as the first step in the purchasing workflow, where employees formally request goods or services needed for business operations. It ensures compliance with internal controls, budgetary limits, and Swiss procurement regulations while creating a clear audit trail. The form typically requires various levels of approval based on purchase value and type, incorporating elements required by Swiss business practices and the Swiss Code of Obligations. It acts as a control mechanism to prevent unauthorized purchases and maintain financial discipline while documenting the business justification for each procurement request.
