Training

In the Purchasing Processes and Procedures workshop, you will learn about the role of the central Purchasing department at RIT, how the Purchasing staff can help departments make good buying decisions, what employees need to know before committing Institute funds, as well as important tips about how to interact with suppliers.

In the Oracle Requisition training module, you will learn how to create a requisition in Oracle. Requisitions are used to generate a purchase order to pay for goods and services. It is recommended to complete the "Purchasing Processes and Procedures" training course (also in Talent Roadmap) to fully understand the uses of requisitions.

RIT has partnered with PaymentWorks to provide a secure supplier onboarding portal. RIT joins many other higher education institutions that have also implemented PaymentWorks to automate the vendor management processes, protect against business payment fraud, and ensure regulatory compliance.
