Why is selecting the correct CATID on the Peoplesoft Web requisition so important?
It is important to choose the correct CATID at the time of keying the requisition so that each transaction will be classified correctly on your Data Warehouse reports. The CATID you choose determines the account number, and it is the account number which appears on data warehouse reports to denote the classification of expenditure. Example: You don’t want office supplies appearing on your financial reports as professional services and fees expenditures.
