Failed Purchase Order Process The CSD (BuyerHelp) identifies failed purchase orders (PO) due to problems with the vendor’s preferred ordering method (fax or e-mail) Twice weekly, on Tuesdays and Fridays, the Failed Purchase Order Report is sent to the agency’s Purchasing and Finance & Accounting liaisons The report contains two tabs: Failed PO – Open or Returned Failed PO – Successfully sent
Failed Purchase Order Process (cont’d) CSD may be able to identify and make contact with the vendor and therefore prevent agency from having to resend the failed PO If the PO is still unsuccessful, the CSD will attempt for 2 business days to contact the vendor by phone and get current information from them, send the order and update the vendor’s information in Vendor Registration If the CSD cannot contact the vendor, the vendor’s name will be marked with Invalid Data, the month and year this is effective. Ex: Geyer Painting Inc. ID: 05/08(001_Geyer Painting Inc. Tallahassee) When an order is successfully resent: If there are attachments, an e-mail is sent to the agency advising them of the successful send but the agency will need to follow up with the vendor and provide them with the attachments If there are no attachments, a notification is not sent to the agency
Details of the Failed Purchase Order Report All failed POs will be visible via the Failed Purchase Orders report, which contains the following information: Agency Name Preparer PO Details DO # PUI Attachments? (Y or N) Vendor Details Vendor Name FEID Contact Information (name and telephone #) Why Purchase Order failed to go to the vendor Ordering status Email failed due to email address being invalid the dialed number was busy, etc. Date PO failed Date PO sent or Agency notified Status Failed PO Returned to Agency or Initial PO Failure Ticket #
Vendors with Invalid Data/Vendor Inactivations The Vendors with Invalid Data and Vendor Inactivations Reports are currently being distributed weekly on Mondays to your agency liaisons Vendors with Invalid Data Vendors are “marked” when an attempted DO has failed to reach the vendor via their preferred ordering method. The agencies are asked to contact the vendors in an attempt to get the updated information. Agencies can continue to do business with these vendors, however, there is a risk of encountering errors in the processing of orders Vendor Inactivations When a vendor’s registration account is set to an inactive status (inactive or suspended), any outstanding transactions with the vendor will not be able to be completed in MyFloridaMarketPlace. A warning message will display on the transaction indicating “Vendor has been deleted.” When this warning message displays, the user needs to follow the directions outlined in the “Required User Actions Impacted by Vendor Inactivations” table in the Vendor Inactivation job aid to appropriately close out any outstanding transaction that are open Job Aids - http://myfloridamarketplace.com/toolkit Note: For current orders to vendors appearing on the Vendor Inactivation List invoices must be received and in “ Paid” Status prior to the inactivation date

SIR Update – Accounting Related SIR 827 - When EO is inactivated in FLAIR, the EO may not be inactivated in MFMP (implemented on 3/28/2008) MFMP will now be able to correctly update inactive Expansion Options from FLAIR. To accommodate this change, several impacted Expansion Options will be inactivated and marked with a suffix of ‘-INACTIVE’ SIR 851 - Category and Category Year not defaulted for ORG = 75-10-30-01-000, EO = 59, Ver = 11 (implemented 3/28/2008) MFMP was updated with the proper accounting combination to allow for defaulting of specified category and category year. The accounting combination was not originally loaded due to a batch failure in 2006
SIR Update – Change Orders/Release Encumbrance SIR 617 - FLAIR is still active on “Ordered” requisitions (implemented on 3/28/2008) Release encumbrances that have an error while processing in FLAIR will now return and deny the FLAIRIntegration approval node, signaling the failure of the Release Encumbrance. The following comment will be added: “Transaction has NOT successfully been released in FLAIR.” Extra validation to the Release Encumbrance eForm has also been added to confirm that a customer has a FLAIR log-in account set up in MFMP before processing the release encumbrance SIR 890 – Changed encumbered requisitions went to “Ordered” status without adding FLAIRIntegration (implemented 3/28/2008) Customers who choose to bypass the warning message for encumbered change orders that had at least one line item that had been fully paid will now have to check the following checkbox: “Ignore warning related to closed FLAIR encumbrance line”
