As a procurement administrator, you can create workflows that blend automation,
integration, and human review to process the purchase modification requests raised by shoppers.

Purchase revision workflow involves the steps to route the request through various
stakeholders. The following workflow shows how the admin facilitates the purchase modification
process to create requests, resolve request, and communicate with stakeholders:

## Administrator {#purchase-revision-flows-roles__section_tb1_bhh_npb}

As an admin or process owner, you can facilitate shoppers with a process to raise edit or
cancel requests from Service Catalog and ShoppingHub. Define a unified task-view playbook
experience for agents to process the approval workflows:

## Shopper {#purchase-revision-flows-roles__section_c5w_2gh_npb}

As a shopper, you can raise the edit or cancel requests for the following objects from ShoppingHub or Service Catalog:

* Purchase requisition: A purchase request that tracks all tasks and approvals, and associates the purchase to a contract and supplier. Purchase requisitions contain one or more purchase line items. A purchase order is created from a purchase requisition task.
* Purchase line: An individual line item that includes all the details of the goods or services for procurement. Purchase requisitions contain multiple purchase line items.
* Purchase order: A purchase order includes one or more purchase order lines. Once the business unit approves the purchase requisition, a purchase order is issued to the supplier with the requested goods or services.
* Purchase order line: An individual line item that includes all the details of the goods or services for procurement. Purchase orders contain multiple purchase order line items.
