Requisitions for open purchase orders
For open PO’s to our local vendors, please type in the time frame in the description area of the requisition (i.e. January Open PO). The open purchase order amount should be for the estimated amount of the time frame requested. Please note all open purchase orders will encumber the department budgeted funds until liquidated or closed.
Shipping/Freight
When entering requisitions please add an estimate of the shipping/freight charges. All orders must be shipped to Central Supply unless pre-arranged with the Purchasing Director for a campus or department shipment. Campus and departments are not allowed to have direct shipment and no personal home deliveries are allowed.
New Vendors
If you are requesting a new vendor, please visit the purchasing page. Vendors must be pre-approved and complete the vendor packet.
Purchase Orders
Purchase orders orders cannot be be released without receipt of the requisition and any back-up documentation (required quotes). Requisitions are approved daily by Finance and purchase orders are emailed upon approval to the Requestor.
Invoices
Invoices should never be attached to requisitions. Services and purchases should not be received until after a PO has been generated. Receiving purchases and services before the PO is approved is representative of failure to follow district policy.
Responsibility for Debts (CH Local)

[See CE] The Board shall not be responsible for debts incurred by persons or organizations not directly under Board control. Persons making unauthorized purchases shall assume full responsibility for all such debts.
