Refresher: Free Text Carts?Free Text Carts are used for any commodity listed in the Purchasing / AP Quick Reference Guide requiring Shopping Cart as the purchase method and for which there is not a punch-out catalog loaded. After approval, Free Text carts arrive at Purchasing for manual processing.

Examples of orders that would follow the Free Text process:

•Any purchase, regardless of amount, that involves written agreements

•Commodities having special conditions or nature (e.g., personal service contracts, leases, licensed promotional goods, etc.)

•Purchase of capital equipment (i.e., items > $2000 cost, or > $1000 for computers)

•Purchases, regardless of amount, for which the procurement card is not the applicable method or the vendor does not accept the procurement card

Create Free Text Shopping Cart

“Free Text” Shopping Carts are applicable for any commodity in the Purchasing / AP Quick Reference Guide requiring Shopping Cart as the

purchase method and for which there is not a punch-out catalog loaded.

SRM Free Text Carts

Free Text Shopping Cart – OverviewThe first step in creating a Free Text Shopping Cart is obtaining a quote from a supplier. As the name “Free Text” implies, the Shopper enters the line items directly into the cart via freehand rather than selecting from punch-out catalogs. The Shopper attaches the quote to the Free Text Shopping Cart during the creation process.

Free Text carts frequently, although not always, originate from suppliers holding a University Price Contract or other agreement. If needed, the Price Contracts listing can be found on the Purchasing website at: http://www.uky.edu/Purchasing/.

All Free Text Shopping Carts require approval regardless of dollar amount. The carts route to Purchasing after approval and are processed manually based on established protocols.
