Ordering Paper for Pay-for-Print Devices

With the implementation of Workday, the process to order paper for UBC Okanagan managed print devices (multi-purpose devices for print, copy and/or fax) has changed.

Please contact Toni Lee (toni.lee@ubc.ca) with any questions about this process or to onboard new staff who will be ordering paper for your department.

    5. Click SUBMIT

14. Paper is delivered to Deliver-to Location
    
     
    NOTE: The invoice will be sent once the order is out for delivery and may be received in Workday before the paper is physically received. If so this will cause a Match Exception notice sent to you via email and in Workday. This is NOT AN ERROR and will be resolved once you Create Receipt (click this link for details on this process) in Workday. 
15. LAST STEP! Create Receipt to issue invoice to be paid (will be charged to IT)
    
    
    1. In Workday, click on Purchases - > Create Receipt (follow steps in Job Aid linked above)
       
       
    2. The Create Receipt process enables Workday to automatically perform 3-way matching (i.e., matching information of the goods/services received, the Purchase Order and the supplier invoice) and if they all match, Workday will automatically approve the invoice and process payment.
