eVA NEWS & CHANGES
No Shipping Address in “See Comments”
eVA Users should discontinue use of “SEE COMMENTS” as a choice for delivery address immediately.
If the correct shipping address is not available in the drop down list, contact Vickie Chapman to have the correct address entered. “SEE COMMENTS” will be removed by eVA at a future date.

eVA Change Orders
If Users need to issue change-orders to requisitions that were created prior to break, be prepared for a one time change. An error message will state that the ORG is invalid. Please contact Procurement Services for assistance, or follow the guidance provided below:
If the change order requires a line item deletion, Users will need to manage the ORG code error PRIOR to deleting the line item. To manage the ORG code error, edit the line item and select the ORG code from the full ORGS available drop down list. Once the ORG is reselected, the line item can be deleted if necessary, or other changes made and the requisition re-submitted.
———————————————————————-
Contract Numbers Must be Entered
When entering an eVA order from a contract (state, UMW or other), Users must enter the contract number in the contract number field which is located in the line item of the requisition. For help with contract numbers contact Procurement Services, ext. 1127.
