Guide to Supplier and Payee Onboarding

To ensure an efficient path to payment, we have updated the onboarding processes for both standard suppliers and non-employee payees. Please review the two distinct processes below to determine which applies to your provider.


1. Standard Suppliers and Service Providers (PaymentWorks)

A "supplier" is any business or individual providing goods and/or services (excluding miscellaneous payees).

  • The Process: We use PaymentWorks to automate and simplify onboarding for new suppliers.

  • Next Steps: If your supplier is not already established in Workday, you will need to send them an invitation via PaymentWorks.

  • Instructions: Please visit Procurement's website for step-by-step instructions.


2. Non-Employee Payees (OnBase)

This secure, digital process is specifically for non-employee payees. This includes Miscellaneous Payees, External Committee Members (ECMs), One-Time Payments, and Non-Employee Reimbursements (such as travel reimbursements or honoraria). Note: This process is not for standard suppliers providing goods or services.

  • The Process: We have implemented a new payment Information Intake Form via OnBase.

  • Next Steps: To begin, please have the Payee submit the OnBase Information Intake Form

  • Browser Note: Please ensure you are using Firefox or Microsoft Edge, as these are the preferred browsers for the OnBase form
