21. What’s different with Requisitions? • Requisitions will be built on a single electronic form with tabs by Grade Level. • The Grade Level tabs will list all active Multi-List Codes in two sections (Eligible, Not Eligible) • The “Not Eligible” MLC Section will be collapsed as a default.

22. More differences • The Grade Level tabs will reflect those levels taught in the district. (This is more relevant to Charter Schools) • Population updates with certain limitations will be allowed on the Requisition form. • Requisition quantities will be validated against remaining eligibility as they are entered.

23. EMAT Requisition Order The IMET Administrators control which requisitions are valid for a School Year and the order in which they must be completed. The 2009-2010 order: • Subscription Renewal Requisitions • Annual Continuing Adoption Requisitions • Supplemental Requisitions

33. EVI Population Activities • Textbook Coordinators can see online in EMAT their eligible EVI student counts. • Textbook Coordinators can enter Bilingual or English as a Second Language student counts among the eligible EVI student counts, if necessary.

34. EVI Population Activities • EVI Textbook Coordinators can enter off-level adjustments among the eligible EVI student counts, if necessary. • EVI Textbook Coordinators can request additional population eligibility, if necessary.

35. EVI Population Activities • EVI Textbook Coordinators can NOT directly increase the population above the Annual Enrollment data. These adjustments can only be performed by IMET Staff.

40. Surplus • Surplus will be calculated once per year based on the end of October reported enrollment by the Textbook Coordinators. • The coordinators will determine what portion of the calculated Surplus is being declared available for Surplus shipment. • Textbook Coordinators can change declared Surplus as necessary.

41. Surplus Shipments • During Summer the Unavailable dates will determine which Districts are available to ship Surplus orders. • The Shipping District will be chosen to minimize the number of shipments. • The tie-breakers for selecting the Shipping District are based on proximity to the Requesting District.

42. More about Surplus Shipments • Surplus shipments less than 151 are shipped via UPS. • Surplus shipments greater than or equal to 151 are shipped via Central Freight. • Surplus shipments are subject to Auto-Cancel, if not Shipped promptly. • Surplus shipments are subject to Auto-Receipt, if not Received promptly.
