information to the cart, you can unassign it. Click on the Carts tab, click Draft Carts,then click Unassign” for the specific cart. See “Correcting an Order” if your cart has already been submitted by the Requester.

What does it mean to “Assign the Cart?”

When you select “Assign the Cart” you are simply allowing the Requester to view and possibly
complete your cart. The Requester will insert the project and accounting, select approvers, and “Place Order.”  Until the cart has been assigned to the Requester and s/he complete the information to “Place Order,” the order cannot be approved by the approver.

I am a Requester. When I “Place Order,” where does it go?

For non-catalog orders, regardless of dollar amount, the order will be put in to the workflow the Spend Approver and Financial Approvals.
