Purchasing

To update your requester preferences (Buy Carolina, POs, etc.):
Main Menu → Finance Menu → Set Up Financials/Supply Chain → Product Related → Procurement Options → Purchasing → Requester Setup

We cannot transfer money to any person or organization who is not in the vendor system. The only exception is gift cards for study subjects (see cash advances.)
