Purchase Orders at Duke

Description: 

Purchase orders are used to procure a vast majority of the goods and services used by Duke University and Duke University Health System. In this session participants will learn the different types of purchase orders that can be issued the reasons why different types of purchase orders are necessary including the numbering system used. Additionally, participants will better understand the business process for establishing a purchase order, how purchase order information is disseminated to vendors and the department, and best practices for ensuring purchase orders are established and/or modified in a timely and efficient manner. Case studies will be used to allow participants time to practice classroom learnings.
