    Has anybody ever audited their RQ04 users in order to determine how many of those users that are set up with an RQ04 record actively create requisitions, either directly through RQ10 or through RSS?

    Our organization has about 3500 total employees and we have close to 1000 RQ04 records. However, it is believed that many of the existing RQ04 records may be obsolete (and if so, we'd like to get rid of them). Therefore, I have been asked to determine how long it's been since each of these RQ04 requesters has actually generated a requisition.

    Can anyone provide any insight on how I could go about doing this? I am unsure which tables I could query, etc.

    Thank you for any ideas you can provide!

      I would start with REQHEADER.

      A SQL query
      select distinct(requester) from reqheader
      will list of all requesters that ever created a requisition.
      Whoever is not on this list ......

        Basically you can compare the REQUESTER column from REQUESTER table to REQUESTER in the REQHEADER table. The following SQL code will work. Just replace lawsonprd with your own company's schema name:

        select rq.company, rq.requester
        from lawsonprd.requester rq
        where rq.requester
        not in (select requester
        from lawsonprd.reqheader rh
        where rq.requester = rh.requester)

        This code will tell you which requester has a requester record, and has no requisitions entered.

          You can change that SQL slightly to

          "...where rq.requester = rh.requester
          and rh.creation_date > getdate() - 365)'

          This would tell you all requesters that haven't created a requisition in the last year. There is also a status column on the requester table so you can exclude requesters that are already marcked as inactive.
