How to Use CSUBUY P2P

CSUBUY P2P FAQ

  • I don’t have access to CSUBUY P2P

    You may not have a role yet in P2P. At go-live any existing PeopleSoft requisitioners were given the new Requester role in CSUBUY P2P. If you were designated on the DOA, you received the new DOA Approver role. If you have a shopper or requester role in the CSUBUY marketplace those are separate and not connected to the new P2P system. The new P2P system uses CFS roles. Please request new access through the CFS Security Request Form. Students are not able to have a role in P2P at this time. They can be a shopper in the ProCard marketplace.

  • Where do I send a CSUBUY invoice I received in my department?

    Email the digital invoice to csubuy-payment@calpoly.edu. Payment Services will create a voucher from the invoice. If receiving is required for your invoice, the PO owner will receive the notification that a voucher either needs a receipt for goods or to approve the voucher for services.
