9. Slight change in eStores notifications process
PSSC Processes
Slight change in eStores notifications process
The PSSC Finance Coordinators will no longer notify requestors when an eStores pushed Purchase order has been completed.
Only a few of our areas were getting these notifications
Spoke to Student Life Business Managers and they indicated these notifications were mostly ignored
The amount of time it takes to notify a requester after the PO is created for the number of eStores requests drastically outweighs the perceived value to our customers
Updated Information on an order is always available by searching for the eRequest.

10. Accounts Payable Updates
The Central Accounts Payable office will be relocating to the PRSM building, 2650 Kenny Road effective December 1, 2016.
Please remind vendors to send invoices directly to Accounts Payable and update their bill to address as follows:
OSU Central Accounts Payable 120 Stores and Receiving Building 2650 Kenny Road Columbus, Ohio 43210
