Procurement Tuesday Tip for June
It’s time for the June Procurement tip! On the first Tuesday of each month, our office will share a quick tip to help improve the Procurement Process and save you time. Please reach out if you have any questions.
Today’s Tip: When adding your vendor for a Kuali requisition be sure that you are selecting the, “Return Value” button after a vendor search so it populates the vendor record. To ensure the vendor is added correctly there should be a vendor number XXXXX-X that populates with the name and address details.
