Purchase Orders (POs) are typically used to set aside funds to purchase large items. These are not a means of paying an invoice already received. 

(warning) For expense types not on the BFAS list, a PO must be requested using the vendor's quote or estimate once it's agreed to proceed with the job. 

To pay invoices already received for expense types on the BFAS list, please see Requisitions section.

The preferred method to obtain goods and services is utilizing the electronic requisition system available through the eProcurement module available in PeopleSoft Financials. This will provide easy access to our preferred suppliers and contract pricing through the catalogs set up under the web tab. eProcurement special request requisitions have replaced the paper requisition process for all goods and services that require a purchase order.

The College of Law submission of eProcurement special requests is currently centralized through the Budget Office. 

Departments should submit a PO request to the Budget Office by completing a requisition.
