Oliver,
Hi there, we are all set with using PO 152902 until June 30th, 2014. To which we will extend as reoccurring each year. So the PO will stay the same for any charges on the stockroom kiosk.
Other info
History on PO's cap
Cap originally set to $14,850.
When above email sent, cap raised to $30K. That is current cap, year-to-year (much higher than needed, now that main projected completed!).
Info vendor should have received, from CU Purchasing
Instead of snail-mailing in invoices to CU Purchasing (AND emailing me a copy), simply email the invoice to CU Purchasing:
http://www.dfa.cornell.edu/payments/contacts/
Accounts Payable <uco-accts-pay@cornell.edu>
This method would save the vendor time (1 step, not 2), saves a stamp, and gets vendor paid faster. (Bonus: And Oliver is not left wondering if the invoice got sent to CU Purchasing!)
And however one sends an invoice to CU purchasing:
- Remember the PO number!
The email's subject line might be, “Invoice attached for PO 152902”. And simply attached the invoice as a PDF. Simple!
If a vendor wishes to further reduce human error, and maybe also the repayment turn-around, it appears they can also send in their invoices DIRECTLY using their XML-format:
