Please note, as a reminder, university guidelines for \u201cDocumentation Requirement for Expenditures\u201d require that when using university funds or requesting reimbursement from university funds, documentation of a clear business purpose is needed so that an approver, reviewer, and \/or auditor can fully understand the intent of the purchase or service and how it relates to the overall mission of the university, college, and\/or department. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The business purpose serves as the basis for a determination of allowance or non-allowance of the expenditure and therefore should address the following: what is purchased, for whom it was purchased, why it was needed, and where it is located. Please keep in mind that restating the item purchased is not a sufficient business purpose. For example, \u201cfreezer\u201d would not be a sufficient explanation of the business purpose. An appropriate explanation could be: \u201cFreezer for storage of research samples in Dr. Johnson\u2019s lab.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
