Sponsor Requests for Vendor Set-up of UCSD
Find information on completing vendor forms and setting up UCSD in a sponsor's system.
Sponsors often require that UCSD be set up as new “vendor” in their systems in order to transmit payments/funds to the UCSD project. This step includes the completion of a “Vendor Set-up Form”. Departments should complete these forms, either in the requested file format or directly in the sponsor’s procurement system, and return to the sponsor.
