Create RequisitionsCUNYfirst Procurement Overview
Effective July 1, 2013, all Tax-Levy purchases, with the exception of those purchases related to Employee Travel and Employee Reimbursements will require a Purchase Requisition created in CUNYfirst.
All Employee Travel (Travel Vouchers) and Employee Reimbursements (use Blue Requisitions) must be sent directly to the Accounts Payable Department (A/P). Do NOT create a requisition in CUNYfirst for these payments. The A/P Dept. will process the payment without a PO.
When creating requisitions keep in mind the following:
1. Quantity-Based Requisitions – These are requests for a specific quantity of goods or services that need to be ordered. Requester enters a quantity of goods/services of 1 or greater on the line of the requisition.
2. Amount Only / Requirement (Blanket) Requisitions – These are requests for goods or services to be ordered throughout the year and the exact amount of items to be ordered is not known (i.e. supplies form Grainger, MSC, Fischer Scientific,etc...). Requesters enter a dollar amount (typically for the year) for the Price and always a quantity of 1 on the line of the requisition. Then you put the dollar amount of the invoice (if it is correct) for those items you received.

Budget Check – How It Works
Once the Requisition is approved by the Level 2 Approver, the Budget Check feature in CUNYfirst runs on an automated hourly basis.
The Budget Check feature: seeks to establish if there are sufficient budget dollars for the
amount of the requested item(s). If there are sufficient budget dollars, the system returns a status of Valid on the Requisition and records a pre-encumbrance
conversely, when a transaction exceeds the available budgeted amount (at the Budget Account level), the system stops the transaction and returns a status of Error on the Requisition
Also returns a status of Error if there is an error in the string of chartfields. The chartfields are the codes associated with a Department: Dept. Code, Operating Unit, Fund, program, MP, SP Init and Fund Source. If one of these codes is incorrect than it will fail Budget Check.
37
Budget Check – Action PlanAs there is NO automated email that is sent to the Requester indicating that the budget check has an Error, the following steps must be followed:
PRIOR TO APPROVING THE REQUISITION
All Approvers should verify that all chartfields and account codes are correct prior to approving each requisition. If incorrect, the Supervisor and/or Level 1 Approver should Deny the requisition & instruct the Requester to correct these fields prior to approval. Level 2 Approvers have the ability to edit the Requisition prior to approval
Departmental Approvers should employ a practice of viewing departmental budget balances by running the Budget query to check for sufficient balances prior to approving requisitions
AFTER THE REQUISITON IS APPROVED
Requesters should check Manage Requisitions daily to ensure that the Budget Check status is Valid for their requistions. If the budget check returns an Error, the Requester must view the requisition details to ensure that the chartfields are correct and verify that the Budget Account code selected has sufficient budget balance. If it is deemed that the chartfields or Budget account codes are incorrect, the Requester must edit the requisition to reflect the correct fields under Edit RequisitionsIf the requisition continues to show a status of Error, the departmental manager must then coordinate with the Budget Office

Receiving
In CUNYfirst you must create a Receipt for a PO in order have it paid. The term Receipt in CUNYfirst should be thought of as approving the invoice/statement for payment. Your Receipt will be assigned a Receipt number.
Receipts are required to be created in CUNYfirst to pay invoices in CUNYfirst for all vouchers associated with a Purchase Order. The Requester must also continue to send the Receiving Report and all back-up documentation to A/P so that they may process the payment.
The Requester should create a Receipt in CUNYfirst immediately upon receipt of Goods or Services. Receipts can only be attached to a Purchase Order. You cannot attach a Receipt to a Requisition. You must know the Purchase Order number that was created for the Requisition you submitted.
Each Receipt will automatically be assigned a Receipt ID # when created. You should first create the Receipt in CUNYfirst, indicate PO# in Receipt comment field, print the Receipt that indicates the Receipt ID # and PO#, sign it, attach it to the original receiving documentation and send that documentation to the A/P Department. If the Receipt requires a Category Approver, you must contact that Approver and indicate the Receipt #. The Category Approver should inspect the items and approve your Receipt.
Make sure all the paperwork has the correct PO # written on it. The A/P Department uses that information to create the voucher that will be processed to pay the invoice.
46
Receiving
The entry of system-generated Receipts will differ based on whether the PO was created for a quantity of goods/services or if it is a Blanket/Amount only PO as described above:
1.Quantity-Based Receipts: Requesters/Receivers will enter a quantity of goods/services received (i.e. 5 laptops)
2.Amount Only (Blanket) Receipt: Requesters/Receivers will enter a dollar amount only (i.e. $100.00 for 1 YR of annual software subscriptions)
Remember: CUNYfirst generated Receipts are required for all goods and services Submit promptly to ensure CUNY meets payment terms on invoices Sign packing slip, receipt or invoice Print receipt, sign it and submit all original paperwork to the Accounts Payable Department Make sure all paperwork has a PO number written on it. Amount only receiving requires the Receiver to enter the dollar amount on the invoice. Quantity based receiving requires the Receiver to enter the quantity of products received by line item If Receipt also needs Category Approver, contact the appropriate Category Approver and indicate Receipt # so
that they can look it up and approve upon inspection.

• Technology Purchases > Joseph Laub - DoIT • [email protected]
