Disencumbrance

the PO encumbrance in UTShare/PeopleSoft
• UTShare/PeopleSoft is set to release PO open encumbrances by an
automated closing process after 90 days of inactivity
• If funds need to be released sooner, email the Purchasing Office
(purchasing@utsa.edu) to close a PO and release the encumbrance.
• DEFINE Purchases not recreated in UTShare/PeopleSoft do not need to be
closed, funds have already been returned to the department.
Additional Purchasing Information
•
Requisition/PO Delivery Location
– Modifying the delivery location on a requisition identifies where CRW (Central Receiving
Warehouse) is to delivery products received
– “How To” on the Purchasing website for instructions on changing a Delivery Location
•
Requisition Budget Errors (Open Status vs. Approved)
– Save the requisition in Open Status (select Save and Preview Approvals) to allow a
requisition to be modified and corrected.
– Approving a requisition (selecting Save and Submit) does not allow a requisition to be
modified.
• Use Manage Requisition to check the status of each requisition.
• Notify Purchasing (purchasing@utsa.edu) if you have a requisition is Approved Status
with a Budget Error
•
Placing vendor orders
– End users are responsible for emailing all small dollar PO’s to the vendor to place orders.
– The system is not set to automatically email a PO to a specific vendor.
Payment Methods Used to Pay

accounts

UTShare/Peoplesoft (contact Purchasing via email at
purchasing@utsa.edu)
Vendor File

email)

box under detail link as “non-reimbursable.”
Travel Reminders (cont’d)
• Blanket Travel: create travel authorization for 30
days. Travelers have 30 days upon return of trip to
settle travel. Because partial payments are not
available in T&E module, travel periods should be
processed for no more than 30 days to expedite
reimbursements to travelers.

requesting a TAC card.
• CLIBA/TAC card payments are processed via a
NON-PO voucher.
