We are pleased to announce that the Workday-to-Conga requisition integration will be restored effective Thursday, February 23, 2023.

For contract requests requiring a Workday purchase order, you must initiate a purchase requisition in Workday, then wait for it to route through financial approvals. Once all financial approvals are completed in Workday, the Workday-to-Conga integration will run and a Draft contract request will be created in Conga Contracts. Multiple fields will be pre-populated for you, reducing the amount of data you must manually enter in Conga. Once the integration is triggered, you will receive an automatic email notification prompting you to log into the Conga system and complete your request; this notification will have instructions to facilitate your submission.

• UHealth Supply Chain Services (305 UHCORP, 310 UMMG, 320 ABLEH, 330 UMHC, and 340 UMH requisitions): SCSHelpDesk@med.miami.edu

September 19, 2022

Effective September 19, 2022, updates are being made to the Conga Contracts system to improve your user experience. When submitting new contract requests, you will notice that some of the Request Forms have been renamed and reordered. Note: No other changes are being made at this time (i.e., when each Request Form should be used remains the same).

June 30, 2022

The following updates were recently made to the Conga system to improve your user experience:

• The "I Need a Review" Request Form is no longer available. This change does not impact any other Request Form or users who request contracts from Contract Administration (Business Services), Supply Chain Services, Purchasing – Academic and Research, or General Counsel's office. Users should continue using the existing Request Forms to submit contract requests.
  
  
• The "Review Only" Agreement Type has been removed from the menu of Agreement Type options in all Request Forms. This change was made for consistency, as this Agreement Type was only applicable with the "I Need a Review" Request Form.
