This workflow identifies specific personnel and is meant for Carlos Santos, Heidi Fisher, and Joe Marciniak

    1. The renewal confirmation email will advise the vendor to hold invoicing until they receive the PO number from Carlos
  3. Carlos locates the e-resource in Alma
    1. Since this is a renewal, it should already exist in the Institution Zone (IZ)

  5. Carlos sends the PO number to the vendor to include on the invoice
  6. Carlos receives the invoice from the vendor
    1. If Joe receives the invoice, he forwards it to Carlos
