4 Please Note: Mac Computers The directions in this manual are for both PC and Mac computers. The only difference is noted in the directions and applies to the links found in the Navigation frame on the PC, which are found in the Options drop down list on a Mac. The illustrations of the Banner Finance screens in the manual are from the PC. The screens for a Mac differ slightly. The menu bar, horizontal tool bar and Main Banner window are the same. The only difference is the Mac does not have the Navigation frame; however all links in this frame are available in the Options drop down list. Banner Manuals The directions in this manual should be used in conjunction with the Banner General Navigation and Banner Finance manuals. The directions and procedures in these manuals are not included in the Purchasing with Banner Finance Manual. Document Numbers When starting a new requisition or receiving document, please use the automatic numbering feature, please do not create your own document numbers. When entering a requisition or receiving, once you are assigned a document number, your document will remain on Banner Finance. You may leave a document in process if you are awaiting more information, a budget revision, etc. If you do not need the document however, please delete it. 4

5 Requisitions for Purchase Orders Entering, Changing and Canceling Requisitions To send a purchase order to a vendor, all you need to do is enter a requisition in Banner Finance. Purchase orders should be used only when vendors require a purchase order; otherwise, please complete a Payment Request Form or use your P Card. If a vendor accepts credit card as a method of payment please use your ACU Purchasing Card. If you do not have an ACU Purchasing Card please contact University Purchasing for instructions on obtaining a card. The Requisition Process 1. Enter your requisition in Banner Finance (Form FPAREQN). At the time you enter the requisition, please check your budget to make sure it has sufficient funds. Within a few moments of completing the requisition, your budget will be encumbered for the requisition. 2. By the next business day, University Purchasing will: process your requisition into a purchase order, print the purchase order, and mail or fax it to the vendor. The requisition s encumbrance is removed and the PO encumbers on your budget. 3. When you receive the order or the service is performed, you need to enter a receiving entry for your purchase order into Banner Finance. Receiving must be entered on all regular and standing purchase orders. 4. When the invoice is received from the vendor, the invoice must be approved for payment by the signature of someone other than the person who initiated the purchase order. Approvers can be any person (other than the initiator of the PO) authorized by a department to approve invoices for payment. Approvers: please write OK to Pay and sign your initials on the invoice OR provide approval to pay specific invoices/pos by Invoices approved for payment are then forwarded to Accounts Payable. 6. When Accounts Payable receives the invoice, they enter it into Banner Finance. If the purchase order, receiving, and invoice approved for payment match, the invoice is deducted from your budget and the purchase order s encumbrance is removed. The check is automatically printed (or deposited if the vendor is set up with direct deposit) so that it will arrive at the vendor by the due date. Purchase Order Types 1. Regular Orders a regular order is a purchase order for a purchase from a vendor. 2. Standing Orders a standing order is an agreement that is good for an entire fiscal year and is used to pay recurring expenses such as monthly leased equipment charges and frequent purchases from the vendor. Note: University Purchasing and Accounts Payable have evaluated opportunities to leverage the overall expenses of the university by utilizing the ACU Purchasing Card (P Card) whenever possible. We ask that you use your P Card in place of a purchase order for all your Regular and Standing Order needs. If it is not possible to use a P Card or a Payment Request with a vendor, then a requisition may be entered into the Banner system. 5

26 Purchase Orders Changing, Canceling and Receiving on Purchase Orders To have a purchase order sent to a vendor, all you need to do is enter a requisition into Banner Finance (see previous section for instructions). Purchase orders should be used only when vendors require a purchase order; otherwise, please complete a Payment Request Form or use your P card. Remember credit card is the preferred payment method for most purchases. Receiving You will need to enter a receiving document every time you receive products or services from a regular or standing purchase order. When the invoice is received from the vendor, the invoice must be approved for payment by the signature of someone other than the person who initiated the purchase order. Approvers can be any person (other than the initiator of the PO) authorized by a department to approve invoices for payment. Approvers: please write OK to Pay and sign your initials on the invoice OR provide approval to pay specific invoices/pos by . 26

27 Encumbrances At the time the invoice is entered in Banner Finance, the encumbrance will be reduced by the same amount. When Accounts Payable marks the invoice final, any remaining encumbrance will be removed. If you still have an encumbrance on a purchase order that has completely paid, please contact us at purchasing@acu.edu or (325) Changing a Purchase Order We can change, add or delete any information except the vendor and the FOAP in a purchase order. If necessary, we can reprint a purchase order and send it to the vendor again (as long as the purchase order has not yet been paid). To change a vendor requires us to cancel the purchase order and issue a new purchase order. Changing a FOAP on a purchase order causes a glitch which will not allow the purchase order to close; therefore we ask that if you need to change a FOAP for a purchase order either cancel it or make a Journal Entry to fix the mistake. Changing the Header Information Changing, Adding or Deleting a Commodity Increasing and Decreasing a Standing Purchase Order To make any of these changes, please send in writing the purchase order number and the changes:. E mail to purchasing@acu.edu. Fax to (325) Memo to ACU Box Changing a Vendor To change a vendor on a purchase order, we will need to cancel the purchase order and create a new purchase order to the proper vendor.

Receiving You will need to enter a receiving document every time you receive products or services from a regular or standing purchase order. Therefore, only record what you have received. This will help insure that you are only charged for the items actually received. Please do not wait to enter receiving until you receive a notice from Accounts Payable requesting you to receive on a purchase order. Please enter receiving each time you receive goods or services purchased on a purchase order. All receiving is done on the purchase order level.
