PO Numbers

PO Numbers and Delivery Addresses

Two very common aspects of purchasing will be affected by our transition from Oracle to Workday Financials:  one is an improvement and one will be a temporary inconvenience.  To learn more, read on!

PURCHASE ORDER NUMBERS WILL LOOK DIFFERENT

 PO numbers will have just 10 digits; the seven leading zeroes you are accustomed to seeing will be removed.  The number convention will remain the same. This change allows the easier exchange of electronic data between UVA and our suppliers.

Example: 

  • Oracle PO Numbers – 7 numeric digits – 2458874
  • Workday Numbers from Training – 13 alpha-numeric digits – PO-0000000015
  • Workday Numbers after July 4 – 10 alpha numeric digits – PO-0000015
