Overview
Understanding the Difference Between a Requester and a Shopper
Detailed Information
An eProcurement Requester:
- Logs in through PeopleSoft Financials to access the eProcurement tile
- Creates catalog requisitions (with suppliers available inside Show-Me Shop)
- Creates non-catalog requisitions (when a PO is needed for a supplier not in Show-Me Shop)
- Creates Item Master orders (HOSPT Business Unit only)
- Creates receipts/receiving against Purchase Orders (COLUM/UMSYS/KCITY/STLOU/ROLLA requesters only)
- Can update funding (MoCode, PS Account) and Location/Ship To Codes
- Submits the requisition directly to his/her Approver(s)
Information
It takes two (2) users to complete an order: ePro Requester > ePro Approver
A Shopper (or Shopper Only):
- Logs in directly to Show-Me Shop (hosted by Jaggaer)
- Can browse and build carts with currently available Show-Me Shop suppliers
- Assigns that cart to an eProcurement Requester who then completes the process (updates funding/shipping, submits Requisition)
Information
It takes three (3) users to complete an order: Shopper Only > ePro Requester > ePro Approver
