About Your Department

Recurring/Repetitive Orders

One on-line requisition can replace several for frequently-ordered materials. Not only will it save you time, other benefits may include:

  • Vendors may offer greater discounts in return for an annual contract.
  • Subsequent orders can be done by phone or email without entering a new on-line requisition.
  • Billing and payment procedures are streamlined.

Contact the commodity Buyer to discuss what arrangements are appropriate for your needs.

Not Allowed as Confirming Requisitions

Do not split an order into two or more requisitions to stay below $3,000. This violates state law for competitive purchases and may result in adverse audit findings for your department.
