INTRODUCTION TO APPLY PROCEDURES FOR FOLLOWUP
REQUESTS ON REQUISITIONS
Followup requests are submitted by customers for one of the following reasons: to get information on
earlier requests, to request a better estimated shipment date (ESD), or to request tracer action on a past
due shipment. Followup action on unfilled requests is not mandatory. If a followup request is required,
the following time frames apply: priority designator (PD) 01-08, at least 7 calendar days after document
date of request; PD 09-15, at time of monthly reconciliation if supply or shipment status has not been
received; and PD 01-15, at time of monthly reconciliation and expiration of estimated shipping date or
14 calendar days since submission of request for cancellation and no status received.
