Follow this guide to send the request PDF/message to selected recipients. The guide then takes you through the correct route, the checks to complete before making changes, the workflow in order, and the evidence to review afterwards.
Where to goAdmin Area → Requests & Applications → Buy Requests → open request → Send Email
Before you start
- Use an account with real_buy_request: View/Edit and confirm the intended record or setting before making a change.
- Follow the exact route above. If the screen or action is absent, check module activation, ownership and permissions rather than using another person’s account.
- Use controlled test data for configuration, integration, email, AI, payment, portal or automation changes before production-wide use.
What you’ll accomplish
Send the request PDF/message to selected recipients. The instructions reflect the supplied module’s registered menus, controller actions, views, settings and code-backed validation flow.
Follow these steps
- Go to Admin Area → Requests & Applications → Buy Requests → open request → Send Email.
- Go to the source record and verify its recipient, status, totals and attachments.
- Select the Send, Email, Share or Request action described in the guide.
- Select recipients and attachment/signature options shown by the form.
- Submit once and verify the activity, delivery metadata, public link or approval request created by the module.

Rules the system enforces
- The send form supports recipients, CC, custom template and attach_pdf.
- Buy and rent requests use separate real_buy_request and real_rent_request capability groups.
- Status changes and conversion actions validate the current request and linked record IDs.
How to confirm it worked
- The supported email a buy request flow completes without bypassing permission or validation checks.
- The resulting record, setting, status, file, delivery event or external response is visible from the relevant workspace.
- Unexpected validation, provider or linked-record errors are investigated before retrying.
Security, privacy and operational checks
- Apply least privilege to purchasing, vendor, invoice, payment, return, contract and report permissions.
- Verify vendor identity, bank/payment details, tax, currency, totals and approvals before creating financial commitments.
- Treat public links, signatures, portal files, attachments and exported reports as controlled business records.
- Test settings and automated jobs with controlled records before production-wide use.
