It is with immense gratitude that we announce the retirement of Shelia Cunningham. Shelia has been a SWIFT trainer since 2015, working for the State of Minnesota for the last 20 years. While we are happy for Shelia as she embarks on her next journey in life, we are sure to miss her terribly. Shelia's last day on the SWIFT Help Desk and Training team is November 4. Shelia has been integral in the design and delivery of first-class training materials for the SWIFT modules and the EPM Data Warehouse. She is engaging and passionate about learning, helping many SWIFT users throughout the years.
Shelia is known for her kindness, humor, and unwavering support. Shelia has certainly earned a long and happy retirement.
Join us in wishing Shelia all the best!

Customers and Suppliers. These terms refer to entities such as individuals or organizations that do business with the State of Minnesota. An entity can be both a customer and a supplier. In SWIFT, customers and suppliers are setup and maintained separately.
Customers. Customers are entities that purchase goods and services from State agencies. In SWIFT, external customers are generally set up at the Set ID level and maintained separately by each agency. In some instances, Set IDs within an agency can share customers if requested when creating a new Business Unit. Interagency customers are set up centrally by SWIFT Module Support. SWIFT stores customer information in both the Accounts Receivable and Billing modules. If a customer has billing questions, refer them to the invoicing agency.
Suppliers. Generally, suppliers are entities that provide goods and services to the State of Minnesota but also includes anyone who receives payments from the State. Suppliers are shared across all State agencies under the “Share” Set ID. Suppliers who provide goods and services, can view their purchase orders and payments through the Supplier Portal. They can request to update banking information, addresses, and contacts. The Supplier Support team approves registration and change requests. SWIFT stores supplier information in the Supplier module. Direct any questions from suppliers to the SWIFT Vendor Resources on Minnesota Management and Budget’s website.
