Direct Vendor Purchases

For those purchases that do not require a purchase order, Accounts Payable can make a payment directly to the vendor. Items that meet these criteria include, but are not limited to: subscriptions, low dollar purchases (under $1,000), and advertising. Please see the Purchasing Department for a complete list.

To process a direct vendor purchase, complete a Direct Expense form (link), include the chartfield coding for the expense, attach supporting documents, including the vendor signed copy of the state Form 204, get authorizing signature, and forward to Accounts Payable for processing. Please allow two weeks for payment.
