Ordering

FAXED ORDERS through the Chemistry PO System: These orders are not faxed by our office, but rather they are automatically faxed upon approval. After 24 HOURS, if you are concerned that the vendor has not received the fax, contact your AA or FA to get your order's PUR number and then call the vendor to check if they have received the order. If they have not received it, verify the vendor's fax number and email your FA/AA to let them know.

Questions and description of problems with the Chemistry PO system should be directed to Ann Wheatley exclusively. Keep in mind it may be a problem the Business Office is already addressing.
