Receiving Procedures

Purchasing/Receiving Requirements

  • Request a "PO #" from Purchasing before placing an order.
  • All orders must be shipped to SMC Receiving. When orders are sent to Receiving, the proper information will be entered on the computer which will allow Accounts Payable to pay the invoice when it arrives.
  • If goods are delivered directly to the department (ie., if the goods are picked up, or come in FedEx, UPS, etc,), Saint Michael's College Receiving must be notified of the receipt of goods/services ordered with a PO.

Steps to Take

  3. Send the packing slip to SMC Receiving via campus mail.
