Placing a catalog order
Who can make purchases? • Two roles in BUY.IU: Requestor and Shopper. • Requestor: IU faculty or staff member, including employed students. • Shopper: IU-affiliate or student. • Shoppers can build orders but cannot place orders. • Must assign cart to Requestor for review and submission. INDIANA UNIVERSITY
Shopping Cart rules • Cannot combine multiple suppliers in the same cart. • The cart is used to build an order which will be sent to a supplier. • Cannot combine Catalog and Non-Catalog orders with Check Request forms. • Catalog/Non-Catalog orders and Check Requests route differently, thus they cannot be combined. INDIANA UNIVERSITY
Making a purchase Step 1: Search for and add items to shopping cart. Step 2: Review shopping cart. Step 3: Proceed to checkout or assign cart to another user. Step 4: Review and submit Requisition. Step 5: Follow Requisition to completed status. INDIANA UNIVERSITY

Document workflow
Who reviews orders? • BUY.IU does a series of initial checks (see reference guide). If any of these checks fail, your order will be returned to your View Carts page. • Next, order routes for fiscal review: • Every order, regardless of dollar amount, routes to the FO Approval workflow stop for review and approval. • Fiscal Officer, primary, and secondary delegates on account(s). • Orders greater than $25,000 also route to the Org Review workflow stop. • RC Fiscal Officer or similar campus official. INDIANA UNIVERSITY
Segregation of duties • Approvers cannot approve documents which they initiate. • Approvers cannot approve document with which they are associated. INDIANA UNIVERSITY
Will my order route through Purchasing? • Maybe! It depends on several factors: • What are you purchasing? • How much are you purchasing? • Is the order recurring? Don’t meet the criteria above? Check the box next to “Order Restricted?” on the Requisition to force routing through Purchasing. INDIANA UNIVERSITY
