  1. Amazon Restrictions

    Mar 25, 2024

    OSU Purchasing has worked with Amazon to block products from purchase that fall under certain categories for which we may have a contract supplier able to offer the same or similar product through BuckeyeBuy. 

    You may remember in the past, a banner would appear noting the item may be restricted, but would still allow you to purchase it.

  2. Reassigning Expense Credit Card Transactions

    Feb 22, 2024

    TRAVEL expenses paid on a Department PCard must be reassigned to the traveler so they can insert their SA# (Spend Authorization #) in the expensing entry. The traveler is to do this within 7 business days of the transaction date. (The card manager is responsible for all NON-TRAVEL related purchases.)

    To REASSIGN an expense to another employee:

    Log into Workday, in SEARCH type Reassign Expense Credit Card Transactions or a short version of that and hit enter. (Less is more when typing in the Search bar.)

  3. Spend Authorization Requirements When Third Party is Paying

    Feb 20, 2024

    When an employee is traveling for business and a third party is covering all the costs:

    A spend authorization should still be submitted, but it can be submitted for $1 using the Travel Incidentals expense item.

  9. UniPrint Ordering

    Jan 10, 2024

    The Uniprint ordering system does not communicate with Workday. You will need to simultaneously place the order through UniPrint and create the Requisition. It is helpful to have both UniPrint and Workday in two separate windows to complete this process.

    UniPrint - Go to the UniPrint website and begin your order through their online ordering form but do not ‘SUBMIT” your order in UniPrint yet:
