SAP Finance (Purchase Requisitions)

How-to obtain SAP training:

All new users must first request a User ID/password.

SAP Navigation/Purchasing related training is offered by Purchasing Department staff, contact  Kathy Fulmer x4185

Note: For the most effective training, wait until you have a requisition that needs to be entered, otherwise the only thing that we can train you on is the query section and you will most likely need to come back to enter a requisition.

Training location:  Purchasing Department, Dilworth Building, Room 209

What to bring to training:

  • Your SAP ID/password that you have tried on your computer.  (The SAP Navigation document below will guide you through the sign in process.)
  • The purchase material/service information including the vendor.
  • Backup document for the purchase you are entering (including order forms, quotes, etc.)
  • The full account assignment (Cost Center/WBS Element/Internal Order number and G/L account)

Below are some documents SAP instructions that you can use for reference.
