Onboarding, orders and payment

Supplier onboarding

What we need from you

All suppliers need to register for an Ariba network account to transact with Government of Jersey.

If you have an existing account, make sure you have provided us with an email address associated with that account.

We require suppliers to use the free standard account at a minimum and are not mitigating fees for suppliers opting to register a fee-based enterprise account, or for existing enterprise account users.

What you can expect from us

If you are awarded a contract for the provision of goods or services, one of our representatives will contact you.

They will begin the internal onboarding process to get all the details we need to do business.

Purchase Orders and receipting

As a registered supplier for Government of Jersey, orders are raised, accepted, fulfilled and receipted:

when a Purchase Order is created by a Government of Jersey requisitioner, you (the supplier) will receive an email notification
when you login to Connect Ariba to confirm or amend the order. If freight is applicable, notify the person who raised the order (the requisitioner). A new order will be created inclusive of freight and the original order cancelled
upon receipt of goods, where the requisitioner will receipt the order and you will be notified by email to raise an invoice

If you have not registered for a SAP Ariba account, follow the link in the purchase order email to create your account and link it with the Government of Jersey.

Invoicing and payment

The preferred process for invoicing is to submit your invoice through Connect Ariba.

This process differs depending on whether you (the supplier) have provided goods or services:

for goods orders, invoices can be raised directly in Connect Ariba once receipted
for services, prior to submitting an Invoice you are required to create a Service Sheet in Connect Ariba, which the requisitioner will review and approve
once an invoice has been submitted, it will be sent for processing where the system checks the price, Purchase Order number, and that the order has been receipted
once the three-way match is confirmed, payment will be arranged as per suppliers agreed payment terms. Standard GoJ payment terms are 30 days

Government of Jersey will soon be introducing an enhancement to the invoicing process in Connect Ariba, enabling Service Sheet to be automatically generated when an invoice is created.
