Types of Purchase Orders
For information and resources about the transition to i-Buy NYU, visit the Legacy POs and i-Buy NYU page.
A Purchase Order (PO) is a contract for suppliers to provide goods/services to the University and for the University to pay for those goods/services according to the agreed terms. Before a purchase order gets issued a requisition needs to be created.
Currently POs can only be created in i-Buy NYU. Legacy POs are available in a read-only view in the University's legacy procure-to-pay system, eReq.

Requisition Approvals
