Description

I order supplies for our lab regularly. Most vendors (e.g. Fisher Scientific) allow users to save lists of frequently ordered items or "favorites". It would be great if the pre-purchasing system allowed us to do the same. If I could generate a list of items I buy frequently from a vendor, I could simply copy and paste the information for each item into a new pre-purchasing request. It would be even easier if I could check boxes next to each item on my list and have the system create a new request that included the checked items and allowed me to update quantities and prices. This would be much more useful than duplicating an existing order, as our new orders are rarely identical to older ones.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or code entry points. Start by locating the existing vendor-item and pre-purchasing request flows, then determine how saved lists, item selection, quantity and price editing should fit them. Done means users can save frequently ordered items and create an editable request from selected list entries.
