eVA Changes Ahead
To support the Commonwealth of Virginia accounting system migration, all UMW vendors must be registered in eva, with the exception of credit card orders (PCO). If you have upcoming or recurring purchases to non-registered (non-PCO) vendors, please encourage them to register promptly to avoid a delay in the order process.

eVA, Your Browsing History, and You
Do you use IE 11 to access eVA? When updating your compatibility settings (refer tohttps://eva.virginia.gov/pages/eva-IE11-compatibility.htm of the eVA website for full details), you should uncheck the box next to “Delete Browsing History,” so the changes you make to your browser settings are not lost after you close your browser!

Bookbinding Vendor
If you have any bookbinding needs, you might consider South Winds Bindery, a local vendor providing the timeless craft of book restoration and hand binding. UMW Small Business Outreach Office worked with Anna Sawyer of South Winds Bindery to get her business eVA and SWaM registered. While she is awaiting SWaM approval, please take time and look at her website.
