Just this last week, I have noted at least 2 occasions where this question was brought up:

a) Can we copy requisition DFF values to a purchase order

b) Can we group requisitions / requisition lines when doing so?

The answers in summary are a) Yes and b) No.

NOTE: This is Purchasing functionality per se. I am providing references to illustrate the concept because these questions I felt were worth addressing through an article albeit in Self Service Procurement.

Here are some additional details that I have culled out from the Purchasing documentation.
