Reminder of Query for Open Purchase Orders with Encumbrances

Encumbered funds are money set aside to pay for obligated or planned expenses. All non-MarketPlace purchase orders (POs) are encumbered. The open encumbrance query shows the open amount left on the PO. This is a helpful tool for monitoring and managing open encumbrances.

The “Open POs with Encumbrance” report provides a listing of all POs for a 2-, 4-, or 6-digit Department ID. It includes detailed information at the header level of the PO including PO ID, PO date, PO expiration date, PO type, PO status, supplier name, original PO amount, and current encumbrance amount. The report can be exported to an Excel spreadsheet.
