Encumbrances
The options on the Encumbrances menu let you add records for encumbrances, purchase orders, and other financial commitments.
If you use the Purchasing System, you can use the Encumbrances options to enter information for anticipated expenditures that are not tied to purchase orders.
If you do not use Purchasing, then you will enter all your encumbrances, including purchase orders, using the options described in this chapter.
The Encumbrances menu's options include:
POs/Encumbrances/ Commitments | Lets you post encumbrances to Fund Accounting. You can also view encumbrances added in the Purchasing and Purchasing Card Interface Systems. |
Batch Encumbrances | Lets you add encumbrances to a batch file which can be reviewed and edited prior to posting records to Fund Accounting. |
