CR Review: CRB Previous Recommendations • For enhancements that aren’t included in Ariba 9R1 as “out of the box” solutions, we must pay for them from the contingency budget. • For the MFMP 3.0 upgrade, we have approximately 750 contingency budget hours which we can dedicate to the enhancement effort.
CR Review: CRB Previous Recommendations • The CRB discussed the following at the 5/18/10 meeting:
CR Review: CRB Previous Recommendations • Considering Ariba 9R1 functionality and statutory changes, these are the change requests we must implement in Buyer 3.0: • Approximately 294 hours (750-456) are available for Buyer 3.0 upgrade enhancements.
CR Review: CRB Previous Recommendations • What else are we considering? • Before finalizing the CRs for the upgrade, we are still exploring change requests for: • IR Mass Accounting Edit • Can IR Mass Accounting edit be implemented without hindering system performance? • Buyer Password Reset • Review state’s security standards with Agency for Enterprise Information Technology (AEIT).

W-9 Project / Vendor Inactivations • Beginning this month, MFMP will remove dormant vendors from the Vendor Information Portal (VIP). • Periodically, vendors will become dormant when they have not accessed their VIP account or responded to bids through Sourcing within the past two fiscal years. • Vendors receiving purchase orders or payments are not considered dormant. • Where can I find more information? • MFMP View eNewsletter • Vendor bulletin board • Vendor Inactivation reports • DMS is partnering with DFS for vendor outreach and education
W-9 Project / Vendor Inactivations Why? • Removing dormant vendors from MFMP allows our buyer customers to select active vendor locations with accurate information when completing purchase requisitions (PRs). • This will eliminate delays in processing the PRs. • Removing these vendors also assists DFS with its W-9 Project. The W-9 project requires DFS to have valid Form W-9s on file before it releases payments to the vendor. • Removing dormant vendors helps MFMP obtain valid Form W-9s from a smaller set of vendors, and reduces the pay cycle time for buyer and vendor customers.
