Confirming Requisition

All:
The policy to eliminate all confirming requisitions has been in effect since 1999. Here is a simple example of a confirming requisition:


You want to order a case of widgets and pay for labor to have them installed. Let's say the vendor is not incorporated, so you cannot use the VISA.

If you place the order, the work is performed, and the vendor gives you an invoice, then the department is required to submit a confirming requisition.

Proper procedure is for you to request a requisition (Request for Requisition Form). The requisition produces a purchase order that has been reviewed by Procurement and Contracts and found to meet all state requirements. The purchase order is sent to the vendor. The vendor performs the work/delivers the goods. The vendor then sends an invoice which is paid.


Keep in mind: if you cannot use the VISA, you must request a requisition prior to the expense's being incurred. Thank you for your future cooperation.
