2. University bookstore. Ordering textbooks in a university bookstore is a massive undertaking that requires good organizational, communication and coordination skills. The process begins with faculty deciding which textbooks they want to use. Professors communicate relevant information about the textbook (title, author, ISBN, edition, publisher, copyright date) to a department chair or secretary, who consolidates all the orders. That communication may take place with a paper form or an e-mail. In either case, the departmental representative prepares a standard university book requisition form in triplicate. One copy for the requesting faculty member and one for the bookstore. The bookstore receives and consolidates requisition forms from all across the university and prepares purchase orders for textbook publishers. Each purchase has three copies. One for the publisher one for the purchasing dept and one for the accounting dept. when the publisher sends the books, the bookstores receiving dept. prepares two copies of a receiving report; one is filed to indicate the goods were received, while the second is forwarded to the accounting dept. The publisher sends a billing statement (invoice) directly to the accounting dept. once all three documents have been matched and verified the accounting dept. writes a check or sends electronic funds transfer to the publisher. The bookstore staff then sorts the books based on class and stock the shelves, where the books await purchase by students.
