The Spend Category Crosswalk (previously known as the Category Buyer Listing and the Strategic Teams documents) can now be found on the University Purchasing website , under "Our Team". The Spend Category Crosswalk describes categories in detail, as well as how they translate into Workday spend categories, from previous Peoplesoft categories. The Category Buyer Listing and Strategic Teams Document are no longer applicable and have been removed. Direct any questions to Ask Purchasing , or the contacts on the document.
All employees are encouraged to log in to Workday as soon as possible and update their specific work space within a building to ensure items are correctly delivered. Please change your work space by following the How to Change Your Work Space job aid. Additionally, your building location in Workday must be correct to effectively change your work space. If your building location is incorrect, only your manager can update that information by following the Change Job Details job aid. Doing this promptly will alleviate future delays in your deliveries.
