We’re pleased to share some important updates to our systems and processes in support of the CSUBUY system.  These changes will improve usability, efficiency, and approval workflows.

Delivery Locations

We have established new delivery locations codes for CSUBUY.  They are designed to match your extended zip codes and be easily searched.  Our delivery location codes will follow a common syntax – D0000.  We’ll discuss how to use these location codes during our CSUBUY Training Sessions – Sign up now!

New Finance Systems Access Form

We have launched a new Finance Systems Access Request that is redesigned for the CSUBUY system. There are two roles to choose between – Requesters and Approvers – which will help support proper separation of duties.  There is no action needed for existing users.  If you had access in FTS, you have been granted the appropriate user roles in the CSUBUY system.

Delegation of Authority Dashboard

You are encouraged to visit the Delegation of Authority [DOA] Approval Dashboard to see how your department procurement requests will be routed to approving officials based on Dept IDs and dollar thresholds. We have been working with division offices to configure the DOA Approval Structure for CSUBUY Go-Live, but it will require ongoing maintenance.  Please review your departments’ approval structures and work with your college or division office if you need to make any changes.

If you have any questions about these changes, please reach out to FinanceConnect at ext. 4-1558 or financeconnect+csubuy@sjsu.edu.
