SUBJECT: SciQuest Forms Update

TO: All Active Users

This weekend, July 16-17, the Jaggaer/SciQuest system will be updated.  As part of this update, our input forms (Non-Catalog Supplies, Check Request, Blanket/Service Order, and similar forms) will be changed from the legacy presentation to Jaggaer’s New User Experience.  This change will be similar to the upgrade of the Requisition and PO form that occurred several months ago.  Ordering from punchout catalogs will not change.

The updated forms will have the same text, the same input fields, and the same functionality as the legacy forms.  Only the appearance of the forms is changing.  It is anticipated that users will adapt to these changes without difficulty.

However, for an interim period until the fall, there will be a button at the bottom of the new forms: View Legacy From.  This button will revert the display back to the legacy view.  Forms can be submitted successfully in either the new or the legacy format.

Contact SciQuest.Support@tulane.edu with questions.

Thank you
