Dear UF Faculty and Staff,

UF is excited to announce that we are partnering with Amazon Business in order to simplify the purchasing process and allow you to take advantage of the wide selection and competitive prices on the Amazon Business marketplace. Amazon Business will be added to Workday starting Monday, August 6, 2018.

We have included a link to Frequently Asked Questions along with information on helping you register your account. If your @findlay.edu email is currently being used for an Amazon Account, you will have two options;

  1. Merge your Order History with the UF’s Amazon Business Account 

  2. Split your Order History to a personal email 

If you place orders on behalf of UF through Amazon, we asking any Amazon.com account associated with a @findlay.edu email be updated to a personal email.  The steps to updating your email are:

  3. Select ‘Login & security’ (NOTE: You will be prompted for your password)
