Can’t purchase stationery. Says unauthorized. Does it has to do something with the upcoming layoffs?

Who uses hard copy stationary these days? Is there some dinosaur team down in the basement of SF that’s typing letters to clients on typewriters? Aruba probably blocked the purchase because it’s old as he-l and nobody uses it anymore. Lol
Most of the accessories are charged to you at a discounted price. No more free stuff.
So some things from Ariba can be “self approved” but they show up on an audit report (small purchases seldom get chased). If you are like 58+ I think you can self-approve up to a few hundred dollars. ;-) friendly CVMer
Try Jumpword: Stationery
Stationery, business cards, etc. are not in Ariba.
There may be products that come up unauthorized if not relevant to your job - don't know for certain, but that would be my guess. Question though: Doesn't your manager need to approve? Don't know this answer for certain, but I thought my manager had to approve a noise canceling headset I purchased a month or so ago.
Don't forget to can send your boss flowers. And the card. You do appreciate this job don't you?
just joking of course ;)
I had no idea we could purchase anything through Ariba!
- Try cleaning cookie , and try to login
- Open ticket with Ariba support and see what happens
by the way which location
- You id may be near expire if you are contractor
- There may be modification in group which you are not present, you need to added.
- Just Check if Jira, and other tools are blocked , if yes you may be on the track.
You can raise ticket to add in group, it can be approved but take as -ve sign and keep finqure crossed
I used it successfully today. Placed an order in Staples
