Approving a Requisition

Workflow

The Green Checkmark is to approve and release to the next approver on the workflow.

The Red “X” is to reject (intended for approvers above the originator). This does not delete the requisition. Instructions on how to delete a requisition can be found in the Purchasing Website under Sungard Notes

The Forward Arrow will allow the user to send the requisition with a question or message to someone. This person will then send it back for user to take action, if this option is chosen. The Forward Arrow will also allow the option to delegate the approval to someone else so that when that person finishes reviewing, and approves it, the requisition will go onto to the next approver in the workflow without having it come back to the person that forwarded. This Option is only functional through the Task List Workflow.

The IMA can also be used to purchase instructional materials that are not on the adopted lists as well as technology services and technological equipment. Districts should prioritize their selections of instructional materials as they relate to the new STAAR assessment and End of Course.

For accountability purposes, all textbooks are bar-coded and processed through Hayes TIPWeb, our textbook inventory tracking system.

The bar-coding system provides a direct link from the textbook to the accession number to the student and/or teacher

A Teacher or student receiptcan be generated, the receipt reflects the accession #’s, quantities, and value of

textbooks issued to them.

With the use of TIPWeb, we are able to verify the total campus textbook inventory, actual textbooks in use, and surplus available (not in use). This allows us to transfer material from campuses with the surplus to campuses experiencing shortages.

Another benefit in using TIPWeb is that it simplifies the Annual Physical Textbook Inventory process.

Each year, audits are conducted when material is no longer used for instructional purposes. During these audits, every textbook within our district must be “physically” counted by Instructional Materials staff. For accountability, effectiveness, and time management purposes, centralization has been required.

Elementary Campuses no longer have to centralize. By scanning the textbooks to teachers, they no longer have to be removed from the classroom, thus the teacher can have more control and better accountability of textbooks distributed to them. Complete details will be sent as we near the end of school year.

Annual Physical Textbook Inventories Annual Physical Textbook Inventories

The Annual Physical Textbook Inventories are conducted during the months of June/July. The results are compared to the textbook activity generated for that school year such as campus requisitions, textbook returns or transfers, etc. The inventory counts will be used to figure campus losses. Campuses will be given time to locate textbooks that have been identified as lost.

(Titles that are not at site to be physically counted will reflect as a loss until cleared)

IT IS IMPORTANT TO REPORT OVERAGES AS WELL AS SHORTAGES Overages may indicate a shipping error. If one campus has an overage another campus may have a shortage.
