Disburser users can create a contract number in IPP to associate with a Non-PO based invoice. The Disburser user must have the View Contract Summary permission associated with his/her role. IPP confirms that the contract number is unique. If the number is not unique per Disburser account, IPP displays an error message.
To create a contract number:
From the Purchasing tab, click the Contracts sub-tab.
From the Contract Summary page, click the New Contract button in the right corner of the summary page. The New Contract page appears.
In the Contract Number box, type a number up to 60 alphanumeric characters.
Click Save.
