Please note, the "Request Date" of the requisition should not be future dated . University funded blanket requisitions should align with the July through June fiscal year calendar.
FY23 blanket order requisitions must be received by Central Purchasing between Monday, April 18 and Thursday, June 30 to allow for adequate processing time.
