Purchase Orders
Release/Approval Instructions for Principals and Directors
New process for entering POs
• Bookkeepers have access to the “Purchase Order Entry Function” in our financial software (SunPac)
• All purchase orders will be keyed into SunPac by the bookkeepers (replaces paper copy)
• Keyed purchase orders will be placed on hold upon entry by the bookkeepers
• Bookkeepers will provide Principals with a printed PO edit report which shows the details of POs generated by them for a specified time period
Release and Approval Process
• Only Principals and Directors have access to the “Release and Approval Function” in SunPac
• Principals and Directors must log into the system and follow the process outlined in the following slides
• All POs will require release and approval by the Principal before approval can be obtained from Directors (if applicable) and ultimately the Finance Officer
Completion of PO
• Once all approvals are electronically obtained, then the PO is ready to be sent to the vendor
• Dala Stanley will send all POs to vendors under her normal operating procedures
• Once the approved POs are released by Dala, a PDF version of the PO will be generated and automatically uploaded to DocAgent
Receiving of Goods
• Bookkeepers will be provided a username and password to access DocAgent
• All POs uploaded to DocAgent reflect approved orders that were sent to vendors
• Bookkeepers will need to print a copy of the PO from DocAgent and use that copy as the receiving copy for the goods (replaces the pink copy)
Payment Process
• All invoicing procedures will remain the same in Accounts Payable
• The only change is that the receiving copy of the PO will be a white copy not a pink copy
