Printing a Purchase Order
This article covers how to print a copy of a Purchase Order in CFS.
Typically the Buyer will email you the Purchase Order ID along with a copy of the purchase order when it is sent to the vendor, so you can also reach out to the assigned Buyer for assistance with obtaining a copy of a purchase order.
Before Getting Started
Before you start this process, you will want to know the Purchase Order ID of the purchase order that you want print.
View information on how to find the purchase order associated with your purchase requisition.
You can copy the purchase order ID so you can paste it later in this process, but you'll also want to write down the PO ID in case the paste doesn't work.
1. Log in to CFS from Titan Online on the campus portal.
2. Click on the CFS End User navigation tile.
- Click on the CFS End User tile.
- Or you click on the NavBar icon to navigate to NavBar > Navigator > Purchasing > Purchase Orders > Review PO Information > Print POs.

4.1. Click Add a New Value.
4.2. Enter the Run Control ID name as Print_PO or PrintPO. Then click Add.
Make sure there are no spaces in your Run Control ID or you will get an error message when you try to create the PDF.

5. Enter FLCMP in both the Business Unit and To fields.
It's important to have the FLCMP in BOTH fields as there are multiple business units in CFS.

After you press the Tab key, all of the other fields on the screen will be grayed out.
7. Click the Run button.
You can leave all other fields set on their default values.

Optionally, you can click on Distribution to change the Subject or Message Text (body) of the email that is sent to you, but it's not necessary.
9. You will receive an email with the PDF attached within about 5-10 minutes. Open the PDF and ensure that all of the information is correct.
