It is time to take care of your standing orders for FY14. University Purchasing along with Accounts Payable have evaluated opportunities to leverage the overall expenses of the university by utilizing the ACU Purchasing Card (PCard). We are requesting you use your PCard in place of purchase orders for your Standing Order needs. If it is not possible to use a PCard with that vendor, then a requisition must be entered into the Banner system by June 11, 2013. This will allow Accounts Payable to pay the June invoices on time. Standing purchase orders entered last fiscal year cannot be used again for FY14. You must use your PCard or get a new Standing purchase order to the vendor.
Standing Order:
Setting up a standing order to a vendor allows the buyer to place orders as desired using the same PCard number or purchase order all fiscal year. For instructions to enter a requisition for a standing purchase order, see the Purchasing with Banner manual.
If you have any questions about standing purchase orders, please email us at purchasing@acu.edu or call 2246.
