The AggieExpense step-by-step guides previously available on the Supply Chain Management website have been reviewed, updated, and moved into the Knowledge Base Article format.    We believe these updated guides will be more helpful and easier to follow than the previous versions.

We are aware of some issues with missing ledger data in Aggie Enterprise related to out-of-pocket reports from AggieExpense. In most cases, expenses between January and May defaulted the Program, GL Project, and Activity fields to all zeros, even if data was entered into AggieExpense. All other chart fields loaded correctly. While this issue has been fixed since May for new transactions, any incorrect entries will require the department to process a Journal Voucher.

This is an advisory for departmental fiscal approvers regarding outstanding Accounts Payable Invoice documents in Aggie Enterprise that may be awaiting your approval. 

Fiscal Close is almost here!  To help the campus prepare for the end of the fiscal year, Supply Chain Management has a webpage that includes Fiscal Close dates and deadlines, instructions for purchasing, accounts payable and travel transactions and other important information. 

With the launch of Aggie Enterprise, our previous catalog ordering system (AggieBuy) has been retired. However, you can still access AggieBuy order and invoice information though the Document Search feature in the Kuali Financial System (KFS). Simply search for AggieBuy Purchase Orders (POs) or Payment Requests (PREQs) to find details on payment history, related documents, and more.  Detailed instructions can be found in the Locating AggieBuy Orders and Associated Payments in KFS  Knowledge Base Article (KBA).

Before Aggie Enterprise went live, suppliers were asked to select a university preferred payment method. This is part of a system-wide strategy to encourage suppliers to accept payments that are more secure and to reduce administrative costs to the University. Those suppliers that did not select an option were defaulted to NET 60 payment terms for future orders and invoices. NET 60 indicates a payment will be issued within 60 calendar days from the invoice date. This change was intended to only impact future Purchase Orders for the specific suppliers.

This month's newsletter contains information on:

• the upcoming Small and Diverse Supplier Expo and how departments can get involved,
• Aggie Enterprise How-To videos,
• how to stay up on all the latest, and,
