Hi Phillip,
Thanks for the information, and I'll keep a copy of this mail for your offer. I'll get in touch with my purchasing department and see what they can offer, not holding my breath!.
Thanks
Andy

Hi Andy,
The trust we most recently used to supply services to had a purchasing card; if your trust really doesn't have one I don't *think* observium can be acquired on purchase order.
I can resell your trust a licence on purchase order basis I suppose, but there would be a small markup involved for the processing & 42-60 days credit your purchasing department will invariably want. It might be worth pointing out this route will cost more - that seemed to be the requisite incantation for purchasing to fess up to having a card last time I did this dance.
Regards,
Phillip Baker

Hi David,
Um, thanks. Expenses in the nhs - not an easy option, especially since we're after this every year. Is there another way? J

I think the easiest approach would be for you to just buy it with your credit card and then write an expense for it :P

I want to purchase a sub for Observium, but being public sector we have some weird ways of paying for things. Who should the purchasing department contact?
