Oracle Purchasing Redwood Request for Department Testers

Dear CFAOs,

As noted in our recent newsletter, Oracle Purchasing, Receiving, and Supplier modules will be migrating to the new Redwood user interface to improve usability. Similar to the Redwood Self Service Procurement (Purchase Requisitions) module launched in July 2025, this transition will be required for all Oracle Purchasing users.

We will roll out these updates in phases, beginning with Redwood My Receipts and Redwood Purchase Agreements, with an anticipated go-live date of July 6, 2026. Testing for additional modules (Purchase Orders, Supplier Registration, Supplier Portal, etc.) is planned for October, with deployment expected early next year.

We will introduce this plan at the April 30 User Group meeting.

To support testing, we are asking each area to recommend 5–6 department testers. Testers should be current department receivers who can help validate functionality and support a smooth transition.

Please submit your recommendations to Andrea Barwinski (andreamc@ucr.edu) by May 8, 2026.

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out.

Thank you,
