Purchase order closures and urgent orders

Purchase order closures 

Staff are encouraged to start reviewing all open purchase orders to identify potential closures; this will ensure any unspent funds are returned to project codes. All standing amount only purchase orders for 2025 will be closed prior to the end of year closure. Staff will need to submit a new requisition in 2026. Please email all purchase order close requests to purchasing@adelaide.edu.au

End of year purchasing deadlines: urgent orders 

The last day for submitting requisitions for purchase orders is Friday 28 November. Staff are encouraged to review and forecast any critical items (particularly gas) with the view of ordering additional stock to cover requirements from Saturday 29 November through to Monday 5 January 2026. Should you have any urgent orders (critical to research projects etc) that you require after Friday 28 November, please contact the purchasing team purchasing@adelaide.edu.au to discuss your options.
