Purchase Orders
We strongly encourage you to begin reviewing all open purchase orders, now. Do not wait until later in the year to request closure or cancellation of purchase orders.

Obligations on purchase orders can be reviewed by using the following report:

2026.

Procurement Card (PCard)
Departments should maintain close control over purchases made by PCard and verify PCard transactions on a daily basis to ensure state funds are reflected correctly in accounts for budgeting purposes. PCard verifications for FY26 must be submitted by cardholders and through departmental approvals by June 30, 2026, to allow time for processing by the PCard office.
Deadlines
| Date | Activity |

From the “Verify Procurement Card Transaction” business process, click on “Information Tab”, and “Edit” to change the “Document Date” of your PCV prior to June 30, 2026 date.

Please remember that even if transactions relating to FY2026 state-appropriated funds are submitted to Financial Services by the specified cut-off date, transactions will not necessarily be processed if there is insufficient budget or inadequate documentary support. Every attempt will be made to resolve and process all transactions; however, we cannot ensure that transactions will get processed prior to the specified cut-off date if we are unable to resolve questions, budgetary issues, or obtain adequate supporting documentation. In the event an FY26 transaction is not processed in FY26, non-state funds will have to be identified to process it in FY27.

Special Note for State Grants ending June 30, 2026
The deadline to process PCard transactions, journals, accounting adjustments, travel requisitions, and PAAs is June 12, 2026, so that Sponsored Programs has sufficient time to process the final invoice after July 6, 2026, when the classified payroll posts. Any expense that posts after July 6, 2026 for grants that have an end date of 6/30/2026 and prior, must be moved off the grant and in accordance with the deadlines noted in this memo.
If stricter deadlines are set forth by the sponsor, your Financial Research Accountant will be in contact with the specific deadlines applicable to your award.
PCard purchases with grant worktags should be verified individually by grant. This will limit the effect on other grants if there is a problem and the transaction needs to be canceled or is delayed.
