BobcatBUY Catalog Upgrades for Connection (formerly known as GovConnection)
March 27, 2024
In February 2024, the Connection (formerly 鈥楪ovConnection鈥) catalog within the BobcatBUY (鈥淏CB鈥), was upgraded with additional search capabilities and delivery tracking information. The Connection catalog offers preferred suppliers for IT maintenance, software and hardware supplies and is contracted through the E&I sourcing cooperative. You can access the new functionality in the catalog as shown below:
- Confirmation tab: Connection purchase orders will display a 鈥渃onfirmation鈥 tab that includes an estimated shipping date. Click the blue confirmation number link to open the shipment header box. The shipping date in the confirmation tab is static once the order is placed and is not updated afterward.
- Shipments tab: Connection purchase orders will display a 鈥渟hipments鈥 tab that will be updated with shipping notification information including date shipped, estimated delivery date, shipping carrier, and tracking number. This information will be dynamically updated as delivery information changes.
