Supply Chain Management recently announced that they have implemented these new Fast Track Approval Processes effective April 14, 2019:
Fast Track Purchase Order Approval:
- Catalog orders under $5,000 and Non-catalog and Service forms under $1,000 will skip Requisition Creator and Org Node approval steps.
- To qualify for the above, Shopping Carts must be complete (shipping address, valid chartstring)
Voucher Payment Process changes:
- Catalog orders under $5,000 will auto-pay provided that the invoice matches the Purchase Order (PO).
