Accounts Payable
Expense reports must be submitted and approved by Supervisors by 12/6 IN CONCUR in order to be paid in 2023. After 12/6 any previous expense will not be able to be reconciled in Concur or transferred to Workday. Charges not reconciled and approved by 12/6 will be charged against their Division’s Reserve. P-card transactions/expenses after 12/6 should be for emergency use only to minimize the number of expense reports being held/submitted in Workday after go-live. Please plan ahead. Any new transactions/expenses after 12/6 will be held and submitted IN WORKDAY after go-live. |
