Instructions for Completing Purchase Requests

There are two forms – one is exclusively for Office Depot requests and the other is a Purchase Request form for all other purchases. Select the one that is appropriate for your needs.

The forms are in interactive PDF format. Fill in all the required fields, which are outlined with red boxes. The only exceptions are the three fields in line 3 of the Purchase Request form (Contact, Phone, and Web Address). While it is desirable to provide the three types of information, you may not have access to all of them. If this is the case, fill in what you know and put ‘N/A’ in the remaining box(es). However, a Phone number or a web address is required in order that Melinda can verify the Requestor’s information.

Once the form is completed, select ‘Save As’ to save the file. Use a unique file name for each Purchase Request for tracking purposes.

Click the ‘Submit Form’ button found in the upper right corner of the form. This will activate your default email program. The form will be sent to Melinda as an attachment. Include a brief description in the Subject line; this will also help with tracking. You may also want to write a note in the text box of the email – this is optional.

When your message is ready to go, click ‘Send’ in your email program. The message and attachment (the PR form) will be sent. Melinda will respond in a couple of days with an update on the status of your request.

You should contact Melinda via email if you have questions about your order.
