  • Year End Reminder

    The deadline for ePro requests with no contracts or agreements from FY 12 funds is Monday, August 20, 2012.

    Required approvals must be obtained to ensure requisitions arrive in BSC Purchasing by the stated deadline. Requisitions arriving in BSC Purchasing after August 20th will be returned unprocessed, and must be changed to Fiscal Year 13 funds and resubmitted.

    The BSC recommends that no purchasing card transactions be allowed after Wednesday, August 22, 2012 to allow time for transactions to post in FY12.

  • Attention ePro Coordinators

    Managing Requisitions as We Approach Year-End:
    It’s that time of year where you should be reviewing old requisitions for those that have not processed. Some may still be waiting on action from you as the epro Coordinator. Please review requisitions and if viable, submit for approval. If you determine that the requisitions are no longer needed, please cancel and budget check to clear any possible encumbrances.
