Year End Accrual:

Items received against purchase orders by the end of June, will be accrued to expense in your “Org” for 2024 even if the invoice is received in July.  Only receipts for items greater than $500.00 in value will be accrued.

Receipts for items received or services provided prior to or on June 30, 2024, must be completed in Workday by end of business Sunday June 30, 2024. This will ensure that any un-invoiced expenses are accrued to FY24.
