Introduction On October 2nd, 2006, the City of Miami upgraded its Purchasing system by implementing new software called “Oracle”. This user's guide is intended to help suppliers understand and use this new system.

Accessing the iSupplier portal iSupplier portal is the internet interface by which suppliers to the City of Miami will retrieve their Oracle purchase orders, requests for quotation, view their account information, and update their contacts. iSupplier portal is a completely electronic interface. POs and RFQs will no longer be issued to suppliers on hardcopy. An internet connection will now be required for all suppliers to conduct business with the City of Miami. No special software, aside from an up-to-date web browser such as Microsoft's Internet Explorer, is required to access this system.

You must have an internet account and be logged on to the internet in order to access iSupplier Portal.

1. Open you web browser (Microsoft’s Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator

are the two most common browsers). 2. At the top of the screen, below the menus and icons, you will find a field

labeled either Address (Internet Explorer) or Location (Navigator).

You must have an internet account and be logged on to the internet in order to access iSupplier Portal.

Log-in into the iSupplier portal There are three different types of log-in options:

1. For Existing Supplier (registered in the purchasing system) • Enter the following into the box for the URL:
