How to do Business with Supplier:

To utilize Candex to electronically pay an individual that meets the criteria listed above, you will need to request the payment(s) for the individual(s) through your Finance Service Delivery Team by emailing finance_delivery@iastate.edu.

If you are paying an individual $100.00 or more, a completed Conflict of Interest Form is required and should be attached to your email request.

Once your request for payment and Conflict of Interest Form (if required) is received by your Procurement and Expense Specialist (PES), the PES will process the payment request through Candex (if it meets the current criteria listed above). Candex will then receive a purchase order from Iowa State and contact the individual you would like to pay to have them register in their system in order to be paid electronically. Screenshots of the entire payee registration process can be found here.

Once the payee has registered, Candex will send an invoice to Iowa State for payment. When Candex receives payment from Iowa State, Candex will pay the individual.
