The sourcing team is responsible for maintaining an up-to-date, accurate and complete global vendor database, which serves as a key internal control for mitigating financial risks such as incorrect or duplicate payments. Vendor master data is used for purchasing and accounting purposes, including invoice payments.

With Update Vendor Service, Master Data Management Local Focal Points (MDM LFPs), on behalf of their local office, can request from the sourcing team to update or block existing institutional vendors (e.g. institutional contractors, field office vendors, implementing partners, travel agencies, National Committees, other agencies, etc.) as applicable. The client has made concerted efforts to strengthen integration in this service request to reduce the need for offices to compete all data. By providing the vendor number, the form is auto-populated with available SAP data. The Master Data Management Local Focal Points only needs to add/update the information required.

With Staff Member’s Bank Details Service, your bank details are initially captured during the onboarding process, but they can be updated if you submit a Staff Member’s Bank Details request to the sourcing team. Your net salary is normally deposited into your primary bank account; however, you can request a portion of your salary to be transferred to a secondary bank account. For international staff this can be an account opened locally. Locally-recruited staff can request up to 70% of their salary to be deducted and deposited in their account. You can request a change to your salary account/s no more than twice a year.

With Education Grant Service, International Professional (IP) staff holding a fixed-term, continuing or permanent appointment may be eligible to receive education grant, and boarding assistance if applicable, for children attending school from the year they turn five years of age to the year they obtain their first post-secondary degree (age restriction applies).A special education grant for children with disabilities is available for locally-recruited and IP staff members, other than those holding a Temporary Appointment. Eligible staff members who are required to pay all or a portion of the school fees at the beginning of the school year can also apply for an education grant advance against their entitlement and submit an Education Grant claim at the end of the school year to settle exact expenses.
