Descriptions
Requisition Creator [ROLE]: Knows the department’s procurement processes. Can shop for a department. Receives assigned Carts from Shoppers or submitted carts via worklist. Can edit the Cart before submitting it into Requisition workflow. Enters the appropriate Chart String(s) and other essential information. Confirms all Requisition information is accurate, complete and complies with policy and funding
requirements.
Cart Authorizer /Additional Authorizer / Chartfield 1& 2 Authorizer: CartAuthorizer[FUNCTION]A Shopper can route a Cart to multiple Shoppers for review. When a Shopping Cart is routed to another Shopper (e.g., a program manager) for authorization or review before creation of the requisition, this Shopper is referred to as the Cart Authorizer. Anyone can be assigned a Cart, and this is a ‘function’ not an actual ‘role’, therefore, the role is not set up through the System Access Request Application (SARA). Additional Authorizer [ROLE] As assigned in SARA according to the department’s selected workflow, reviews Requisition for appropriateness, accuracy, and possibly chartstring assignment. Requisitions can be routed to Additional Authorizers (up to 2) on an ad hoc basis, based on department's needs. Additional Authorizers are often Principal Investigators. Chartfield1&2Authorizer[ROLE]Requisitions can be routed to Authorizers assigned to Chartfield 1 (used by Capital Projects, Facilities Services) & 2 (used mostly by Research units) BFS chart string attributes. Unlike the Additional Authorizer, workflow will systematically route to Chartfield 1 & 2 Authorizers if the unit assigns these authorizers in BFS.
Requisition Org Node Approver ROLE: to approve purchase Confirms all Requisition (order) information is accurate, complete and complies with the policy and
funding requirements. Approves or Returns Requisition. Review Catalog and non‐catlaog orders =>$1,000 Review all Subawards, Payment Requests, Service Orders, and After the Fact orders regardless of dollar
value.

Receiver [ROLE]: Acknowledges receipt of goods and services in BearBuy and attaches packing slips or other relevant
documents. This record will be tied to the PO & voucher. Recording receipt in BearBuy is a best practice.
Note: It is also recommended that the unit take action to make sure that the product is functional (acceptable) before approving it for payment.
Voucher Approver [ROLE ]: Approves vouchers to release payment to the vendor based on the vendor’s payment terms. Approves the clearing of match exceptions, once errors have been resolved by Match Exception
Preparer. This role cannot combine this role with the Match Exception Preparer role.
Match Exception Preparer [ROLE]: Researches and processes the clearing of exceptions when the Voucher and Purchase Order do not
match. When appropriate, works with the vendor to correct erroneous invoices. Works with individuals in their unit to document the root cause and resolution of an exception,
including adding relevant comments and attaching documentation to confirm the goods or services were needed.
Users with this role are included in the Voucher approval process when an invoice exceeds the matching tolerances set in BearBuy. This role cannot combine this role with the Voucher Approver role. Match Exception Approver [ROLE]: The Voucher Approver also holds this role. Confirms all corrected Requisition (order) information is accurate, complete and complies with the
policy and funding requirements. Approves revised Requisition (or forwards voucher to Disbursements for correction or deletion). This role cannot combine this role with the Match Exception Preparer role.
Change Order Preparer [ROLE]: Perform changes requested by department Researches reasons for Purchase Order not processing (when errors occur with change) Resolves errors on Purchase Order so it can correctly be processed.

6.1. Voucher Approval
Overview
Matched vouchers less than $1,000 will be auto‐approved except for After‐the‐Fact orders, Payment Requests, Services, and Sub‐awards which require voucher approval regardless of dollar amount.
Voucher Approval provides an electronic record of BearBuy voucher approval, which is acceptable
for audit purposes. From the BearBuy Voucher record, you can click once to access the PO, receipts and comments
/attachments. We will be demonstrating the one click in the Exercises.

6.2. Match Exceptions
Overview
An invoice is matched to the PO based on line‐item Quantity and Amount. Match exceptions are generated when:
GoodsTolerances Service/Amount‐onlyTolerances
• Invoice line Unit Price exceeds PO Unit Price: the lower of 10% of Total or $500.
• Invoice line Quantity exceeds PO Quantity by 10% of Total.
• Invoice line Unit Price exceeds PO Unit Price: the lower of 10% of Total or $500.
• Quantity is not taken into consideration for Invoice / PO matching.
Match Exception Preparer Responsibilities
Researches and processes the clearing of exceptions when the Invoice and Purchase Order do not match.
– May include reviewing receipts, PO and Requisition Comments/Notes, supplier feedback and the Invoice.
– Must “force match: the voucher to clear a match exception. Note: Purchase Order change will not resolve exceptions.
When appropriate, the Match Exception Preparer will work with the vendor to correct/address erroneous invoices.
Match Exception Approver (Voucher Approver) Responsibilities
Once the Match Exception Preparer completes activities, the voucher is routed to the Match Exception Approver / Voucher Approver to perform approval of the match exception.
Approves the clearing of match exceptions when it is okay to pay the invoice.

6.3. Change Orders
Overview
The Change Order Preparer performs PO changes in BearBuy. Buyers will also be able to process Change Orders. Changes are made to the PO and appropriate information is attached to document the change approval. During the process of making a PO Revision, the Change Order Preparer analyzes the PO along with any associated Vouchers in BearBuy and BFS prior to making the change.
Remember PO Change Orders do not clear Match Exceptions User must have the PO Change Order role to process changes. BearBuy does not have a PO change approval workflow.
Reasons for PO Change Order
Modify Chartfields Lien Closure at the line level
Increase Encumbrance on a Service Order Cancel a Line (unvouchered)
Add a line to a PO Cancel a PO (unvouchered)
Extend the end date on a services order
Considerations
PO Revision and History tabs contain complete PO change history. The Change Order Preparer or Buyer can add External Notes, modify PO information and attach
documents. The Change Order Preparer determines if the PO change should be sent to the Supplier. When the PO Revision is complete the PO is sent to BFS and the Vendor. A printable version of the PO is available after dispatch. This version clearly notes which line was
changed, and also has a record of the changes at the bottom of the printable PO and in the Revision tab.
