As part of the project to move ordering within Workday, Buckeye Buy ordering will be unavailable on Saturday, May 6 , from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. prior to the May 8 go-live. The downtime does not affect par orders or deliveries.
Health System Supply Chain users should note important information contained in the full NewsLink article.
One of the changes associated with the move to ordering of goods and services into Workday is with requisition sourcing rules. Starting on Monday, May 8 , when you create a requisition for multiple goods, some may be fulfilled from inventory, instead of from an external supplier. The intent behind these sourcing changes is to use any inventory on hand first before ordering more from the external supplier.
The experience of ordering from inventory should be no different from ordering through an external supplier. That said, one anticipated benefit of fulfilling from inventory is a requester receives a notification when backorders occur. See the full NewsLink post for details.
Multiple job aids in the Supply Chain and procurement space will be updated on May 8 to accommodate a new enhancement to Workday ordering that reduces the clicks needed to place an order. See the full NewsLink post for the job aids list.
In order to improve the Workday purchasing experience for end users, on Monday, May 8, the SC99999 spend category will be renamed from:
OFFICE USE ONLY - Do Not Change (SC99999) to *Do Not Know (SC99999)
This renaming allows for this spend category to default as the first selection option when Spend Categories are searched in transactions.
Please note, Service Center employees and Health System buyers will continue to verify that the correct spend categories are applied to non-catalog requisitions as a part of requisition processing. There are no changes to the approval process.
