Definitions
Ariba Purchase Requisition (PR):
- PR is submitted for approval prior to purchase. Upon final approval an NSU Purchase Order, also known as an Ariba Direct Order (DO), is issued to the vendor and an encumbrance is created for the purchase. Upon receipt of the order in Ariba the invoice is matched against the DO and the receipt and processed for payment by Accounts Payable.
Ariba Check Request (CR):
- Payments are made to a vendor based on a vendor Invoice when there is no DO issued.
Ariba Reimbursement (TR):
- Payments are made to the employee based on invoices submitted.
For more information on Purchase Requisitions, contact the appropriate Procurement Specialist based on the commodity or service required. For more information on Check Requests or Reimbursements, contact Accounts Payable.
