How to Order & Other Helpful Info

Desire

You want to purchase something for your unit that you can access. Most of the time your unit's kitchen manager can use this website to place that order for you (yay!).

Purchase

Either simply add to cart in Odoo or use the special order request form. You will get a confirmation email once the procurement agent buys your item. Shipping time may range from a couple days to over a month. 


Order Request Form

Receive 

If your item is going to CFS, it will be received during work hours, but we are closed on all school & federal holidays. Once it is delivered to your unit, you get to decide if members have constant access (staples) or restricted access (luxuries). 

Who approves that? 

Being alive has a wide variety of needs, depending on what that item is, you might need to check in with an additional person to use the designated account.
