If we need something from a different vendor, our coaches will put out the money and turn in receipts to the office as an "as needed" basis to get reimbursed. Open POs are great because the bill just gets sent to the school's office and they mail a check back to the vendor with no delays in shipping. McMaster also gives a 2% discount if you pay within 10 days of your PO

This is very interesting. I'm going to see if we can get something similar going with our business office, it would make things much easier if every purchase didn't have to be fronted by a parent or mentor first.
