Learning Path - NCFS State Agencies

Welcome to NC eProcurement Training

NC eProcurement is a comprehensive tool that allows users to purchase goods and services both on and off Statewide Term Contracts. There are several benefits to the tool including electronic approval flows, the ability to run reports, and a built-in informal quoting tool called Collaborative Requisition. There are five different major roles within the tool and each has a different learning path as shown below.

Requester

A requester creates requisitions (RQs) for both Catalog (Statewide Term Contract) and Non-Catalog items. Requesters also have the ability to run reports and act as desktop receivers for purchase orders. Some Requesters will have the ability to Collaborate with vendors on pricing for goods and services within the system.

Approver

Approvers in NC eProcurement are responsible for approving or denying requisitions that are submitted by Requesters.

Receiver

Receivers accept delivery of goods and submit receipts within the NC eProcurement tool.

System Administrators have full administrative access to their entity including the ability to reassign transactions between users and set user permissions by assigning groups.
