Computers, Printers & Accessories – How to Procure and Pay

Payment method

Use 49er Mart to purchase computers, printers or related accessories. Note: Purchase of Apple products from the Niner Tech Computer Store. Refer to the Niner Tech website instructions.

All computer and printer purchases must abide by the Guideline for Security of Endpoints. Requests for exceptions to this guideline may be submitted to the Office of OneIT. See this FAQ for more information regarding the exception process.

Rationale and Other considerations

Orders are processed online through a web browser depending on the type of supplier used. Begin by choosing a supplier, then select items you want to purchase and place them in your virtual shopping cart. After you have finished shopping, your cart proceeds to the checkout. At this point, a requisition draft will be created, and you will need to enter the appropriate accounting codes, such as fund and account codes, to be used by your department for the order.

When you place the order, the workflow process will begin, and an email notification will be sent to the approvers notifying them of pending order. The level of approvals required depends on the dollar amount and the type of purchase. Once the final approval is granted, a purchase order (PO) is generated.

To receive the order, you must log in to 49er Mart. Receiving initiates the payment to the vendor.

How to do it

1. Login to 49er Mart.
2. Click the supplier’s logo (e.g., Dell, CDW-G).
3. If the vendor is a punch-out supplier, you will be directed to the vendor’s site to shop for your item(s).
4. Add the desired item(s) to your cart and click “Checkout” when finished ordering.

6. Review your order details and click “Proceed to Checkout.”
7. Select the appropriate accounting codes for your college/department.
