ABOUT PURCHASE ORDERS...........
A Purchase Order is a contract between Colby College and the vendor. There are two ways to complete the purchase order process.
- On-Line Submission - Fill out the on-line requisition with all the information, Just follow the steps....It's that easy.
- Paper "D" Purchase Orders are issued by Kelly Pinney-Michaud, call or email her to begin the process. The paper PO's are a 3 part form. The white part goes to the vendor, the yellow part is for your records and the pink part gets sent to Kelly for her records.
- Must be sent to Kelly for submission before payment can be processed. If there is no receipt, payment will not be made until one is received.
- Must provide a complete Colby account number.
- If the expense is an entertainment expense, you must provide a complete list of names who attened and also how the expense is related to the college.
** NOTE** If the vendor accepts Visa, that is Colby's preferred method of payment. Most departments have a departmental Visa purchasing card, if your department does not have a card and the vendor accepts Visa, let Kelly know and the purchase can be made through her.
