Requisition Incorrectly Defaults To Internal Requisition When PO Legal Requisition Type = Purchase (Doc ID 390498.1)

Symptoms

Setting the profile, PO: Legal Requisition Type = Purchase, at the responsibility level should allow only the creation of purchase requisitions. However, after submitting a requisition for approval, requisitions are created as internal requisitions in spite of the  profile being set to 'Purchase.'

ERRORS
No errors occur, but requisitions are created as INTERNAL rather than PURCHASE.

STEPS
1. Set the profile, PO: Legal Requisition Type = Purchase, at the iProcurement responsibility level
2. Navigate to the iProcurement responsibility
3. Search for an item that is available from internal source and from supplier. The item is
shown only for the supplier sourced item because the profile is set to Purchase (Not Both or
Internal).
4. Add to cart the item and proceed through checkout. Submit the requisition.
5. Query the requisition and observe the the requisition was created as an Internal requisition rather than a purchase requisition. The requisition should have been created as a purchase requisition.
