Banner finance users should review contact information

Nov. 22, 2021

For staff who enter purchase requisitions into Banner, please take a moment to ensure that your user profile in the Banner user profile edit form FOM2PR contains a correct email address and that your contact phone number does not include dashes. 

it is important to know where your purchase is in the procurement process. It allows you to keep your end users informed regarding the progress of their purchases and identify a purchase that may be held up for any reason. Banner has automated email notifications for the person who enters a PR. These notifications include when a PR is assigned to a procurement officer, when the purchase order is issued, and when a payment is issued. In order to receive these notifications, a person who enters PRs must have their current email address in Banner form FOM2PRF. These small steps will allow better visibility into the status of your department’s purchases, allow procurement to contact you more easily, and help identify processing hangups more quickly.

If you have any questions, please contact Denise Caissie at 907-474-7374 or dlcaissie@alaska.edu.
