Set Up Your M-marketsite User Profile

Overview

The first time you link to M-marketsite from M-Pathways eProcurement, you are directed to set-up your M-marketsite user profile. The information maintained in your user profile reduces data entry when creating orders and enables additional M-marketsite functionality. It is recommended that your user profile have:

  • At least one ShortCode and one Ship To address. This information is required to place orders from the supplier catalogs available from M-marketsite. 
  • The Cart Assigned Notice set to Email & Notification. This allows you to receive email and notification in M-marketsite when an M-marketsite browser or user assigns a draft cart to you for completion.
  • The Receive PR and PO Notifications for Carts Assigned to Me set to Email & Notification. This allows you to receive email notification and notification in M-marketsite when a Purchase Order for a cart that was assigned to you (and you completed) has been successfully dispatched to the supplier.
  • The Assigned Cart Processed Notification set to Email. If you assign a cart to another M-marketsite user to complete the order, selecting Email enables you to receive an email notification when the assignee has completed the order.

Additional Information

You may also set-up a Dept Ref # (Department Reference Number) in your user profile. This value applies to the entire order and will appear in the Header sections on the eProcurement Requisition, the Purchase Order, and the PO Voucher. The edit fields for the Dept Ref # are available from the Custom Fields tab on the Purchasing page.

M-marketsite Browse Only users need to establish a user profile in order to assign draft carts to the person in their unit who is responsible for placing M-marketsite orders, and to receive email notification after the assignee has completed the order. The first time a browser uses the M-marketsite Browse Only link on Wolverine Access, the website opens to the My Profile pages. With subsequent uses of the system, the website opens at the Home page.
