What is it?

The CU Marketplace comes with powerful Search functionality enabling you to produce reports that you can filter and refine. You can save and organize Searches to easily run them again to get the most up to date information. In addition, Search results can be exported to Excel. For more details, refer to Searching for Documents and Running Reports in the CU Marketplace Training Guide.

Using the Orders Search Menu

You can use the Orders Search Menu to navigate to lists containing all of your Requisitions, Purchase Orders, Vouchers, or All Orders. The Orders menu also contains a Quick Search field to search for specific documents.
