Step 2: Entering Order Placement Information

Order placed by - If a requisitioner is NOT going to place the order with the supplier and would like Purchasing Resources to place it for them, choose PURCHASING RESOURCES and at the contact name/method field, 'PURCHASING RESOURCES' will automatically be displayed.

If the requisitioner is contacting the supplier with the order details, one would choose the REQUISITIONER and then tab to the contact/method field and complete as required.  For example, you would enter the company contact name and email (John Smith/smithj@megacorp.com).

If the requisitioner has picked the goods up or the supplier has already delivered the goods directly, please select GOODS RECEIVED and then the contact/method field automatically fills in 'GOODS RECEIVED'.

Supplier Contact, Quote No and Quote Date fields - in any of the above scenarios, if a requisitioner has obtained a quote from the supplier (either written or verbal), please complete these fields.  This will provide the purchasing officer a reference with which to quote the supplier should any billing, delivery and/or descriptive issues arise.
