Use the Second Party: Customer Information Form for a simple and quick way to get the Second Party added to iBuy for use on the Contract Request Form if you are:
- Working with a party outside the university, and no money is changing hands (No-Funds)
- Or the party is paying the university (Receivable)
Using the correct form ensures your party is officially approved and protected, without unnecessary delays.
First, search for the Second Party in iBuy prior to submitting any form using the information detailed in the iBuy – Searching For and Establishing Second Parties for Contracts+ job aid.
- If the party is in iBuy, proceed with using the party on the Contract Request Form.
- No additional action is needed.
- If the party is NOT in iBuy, go to the Second Party: Customer Information Form.
- The Adobe Sign version of the form is preferred and will be the quickest to process.
Once the submitted form is processed, you will be notified by UPAY Vendor Maintenance. AITS iBuy Production Support will respond to that notification, letting you know the party is ready for use in iBuy.
