Frequently Asked Questions

• I'm entering a req and the vendor address in the system doesn't match the one on my invoice. Can I just type it in?
  • No, please don't do that. First, from inside the req in XREQM, click on the icon to the right of the address field to bring up a list of all of the addresses available for that vendor. If you still don't see the address you need, email purch@lcsc.edu with the address and we will enter it right away.
• Can you run an encumbrance report for my department?
  • Please see Checking Encumbrances.
• Do I need to get a PO number to reimburse staff, students, or other individuals for purchases made on behalf of the college?
  • Yes. Please call or email Purchasing for a PO number.
  • For reimbursements, see the Controller's page Valid Receipts for more information.
