Change to SCEIS Blanket Purchase Order and Blanket Purchase Agreement set-up and payment September 04, 2009Return to Index

Due to a change in SCEIS, Blanket POs and Blanket Purchase Agreements will now have the following changes. Please begin setting up all Blanket Purchase Orders and also Blanket Purchase Agreements using this method.

In the Procurement area:

  • The “Quantity” will now reflect the total dollar value of the Purchase Order
  • The Unit of Measure should always be “EA”
  • The Net Price will be “1.00.”
  • Switch “off” the GR flag on the delivery tab for either a Blanket PO or a Blanket Purchase Agreement.

In the Finance area:

  • When posting an invoice for either a Blanket PO or a Blanket Agreement, the Quantity and Amount fields should match.
  • For Blanket POs that are already created with a quantity of 1 and a unit of measure of “AU,” continue to pay the same way as before the change.
