Description: This is a UW system-wide project that aims to consolidate purchasing processes into one online system.
The Shop@UW site will be enhanced to ShopUW+ to accommodate the changes. All purchasing transactions other than p-card will be initiated in ShopUW+. Depending on the type of purchase and dollar amount, a series of approvals may be required before the order is placed.
Key Changes:
- Orders over $300 will be routed through an approval process.
- Users will log in with their NetID and password instead of an MDS number.
- Valid funding must be entered by user when placing order. Russell Labs will no longer reallocate funding via the Tracking Form after the order is placed.
Timeline:
- Early April: training sessions for ShopUW+ will be available.
- April 13: last day to order through MDS as you currently do.
- April 16: ShopUW+ goes live.
