UT Office of Finance to Start Accepting Electronic Invoices

On Aug. 12 2019, we will start accepting electronic invoices from Grainger, Dell, Staples, Fisher Scientific, Staples, and VWR for orders placed in UT Market Place. This will provide paperless transactions with these vendors, improve controls and significantly reduce departmental efforts in processing payments to these vendors. We will continue to onboard additional UT Market Place vendors in the next few months.

Watch the brief video below explaining how these changes will affect your department.

UT Market Place E-Invoice Project

These changes will not affect procurement card orders. For non P-card orders, departments will enter the quantity received in the UT Market Place and the system will provide a three-way match between the quantity ordered, received and invoiced. This prevents data entry errors and lost invoices. A PDF of the transaction will automatically be attached to your ledger. Departments will no longer be able to enter invoices in IRIS to these vendors.

Training will be conducted in-person and via Zoom. See training dates and registration information below.

All questions can be directed to BJ Roberts at 865-974-2569 or broberts@tennessee.edu.
