Create a DO

Create a DO

Background


When you determine that you will purchase goods and/or services from an outside vendor, a purchase order transaction indicates the intention to make a purchase and records an encumbrance of funds.  


The DO (Delivery Order) document is used to make purchases and create an encumbrance against a state cooperative or department purchasing contract.  

 

Document Creation

 

There are different methods of creating a DO.

·         From the Shop (Shopper) table, click here for instructions. This is the preferred method.

·         From the Document Catalog. Click here for instructions for creating a DO from the Document Catalog.

·         From a RQN type of requisition (This is used only by the Department of Corrections.) Click here for instructions.
