The processes and procedures documented in this Buying Manual have been developed to achieve responsible stewardship of university funds, and are based on sound business practices, best value, accountability, and compliance with donor, sponsor, and regulatory requirements.
Note: The Buying Manual is being revised to reflect the changes in processes for the Kuali Financial System (KFS). See the DFA Tools page for standard operating procedure documents available for the KFS Purchasing and Financial Processing modules.
The Buying Manual is accessible by Cornell University staff members only.
