Generally speaking, what are Suppliers?
Suppliers are persons or companies offering something for sale. The term carries a more specific meaning within the 午夜影院鈥檚 Accounts Payable Systems. Within PeopleSoft, a supplier is a unique individual or company who is eligible to receive payment. In order to be paid by the 午夜影院 System, an individual or company must be set up as a supplier. This means businesses, faculty, and staff are all considered types of suppliers.
Within the 午夜影院, how do I locate, add, or make changes to a Supplier?
You can search for Suppliers using either Web Applications or PeopleSoft Production. You may search for Suppliers by Name, or you may contact the Accounts Payable Shared Services Center to request a Supplier be searched for by Social Security Number or Federal Employer ID number.
