Receiving MarketPlace Orders

MarketPlace ordering is a multi-step process. Initiators (MarketPlace Shoppers) shop for goods and services, create and route requisitions for approval, transmit orders to suppliers, and document the receipt of orders online. The final step to close MarketPlace orders is for the initiator to verify items were delivered and document receipt of the order in the MarketPlace Receivers page. Per the MarketPlace Manual, all MarketPlace orders require receiving within two business days of delivery.  

Additionally, Suppliers charge a ghost card (University credit card) for the items when they ship the order; therefore, it is important to promptly complete the receiver report for items received, canceled, or rejected. For instructions on how to receive an order, please refer to Page 44 of the MarketPlace Manual, Chapter 7: Receiving an Order.
