Supply Ordering
In May 2023, ordering of goods and services will take place within Workday instead of being directed to GHX. Some changes will be made in Workday leading up to going live with the new process. One of those changes is how supplier contract information from MediTract and OnBase is loaded into Workday. Currently, when a contract transfers to Workday, it is put under the "Combined - The Ohio State University" company. This setup allows users with access to view any supplier contract negotiated for the University, the Health System, or OSU Physicians.
A new custom notification was implemented into Workday production on Friday, January 20. Specifically, this notification will be for the requisition requester and will relate to Blanket PO’s and invoice total amounts.

If you have questions on how to add funds to your purchase order reach out to your service center representative or buyer.
