The supply activity then furnishes the current status
of your requisition.
When taking followup action on a requisition for
urgently needed material for which the standard
delivery date or required delivery date is past with no
status received, document identifier AT—may be used
instead of AF1. This tells the supply activity that if they
have no record of the original requisition, to process the
followup as a requisition. This could preclude the need
for another requisition if response to an AF1 followup
should be “no record of your requisition.” However, it
may also result in duplicate shipment and billing.
REQUISITION CANCELLATION
When material is no longer required, a cancellation
request should be sent to the last known holder of the
requisition. It is prepared m the same manner as a
followup except that a document identifier in the
AC-series is used. Submission of a cancellation
request does not guarantee cancellation of the
requisition. If the supply activity has already released
or shipped the material, the requisition cannot be
canceled. For this reason, you should not consider a
Requisition canceled until confirmation is received from
the supply activity.
MATERIAL OBLIGATION
VALIDATION (MOV)
Periodically, supply activities review all
requisitions held on backorder and for those considered
overage, they Prepare a backorder reconciliation for
each requisitioner. When you receive an MOV request,
the cards or listing should be checked against your
records and a report made in accordance with the
instructions included with the request. The
reconciliation serves several purposes of which the
following are of interest to you:
current status of outstanding requisitions
cancellation of old requisitions for material no
longer needed by your ship
correction of files maintained by the supply
activity requesting the reconciliation
REQUISITION MODIFIER
A requisition modifier document maybe initiated
by the requisitioner, supplementary addressee, or

monitoring office, to modify
required delivery date, media
the priority designator,
and status code, and/or
distribution code of a previously submitted requisition
when.
Force/activity designator (F/AD) is upgraded or
downgraded
Urgency of the requirement increases (except for
CASREPT) or decreases due to unplanned or
unforeseen conditions
The project code may also be modified if the
outstanding requisition is held by a NAVY activity.
When material on order is required to satisfy a
CASREP, the outstanding requisition will not be
modified. A NORS requisition must be submitted for
the CASREP requirement.
