Oracle PO Receiving/Invoice Approvals 

Create PO Receipts and Approve invoices for Payment. The Oracle PO status must be received and the invoice approved (if applicable) via Oracle workflow before the expense posts to the ledger and payment is issued.

Reminder: All PO-related invoices must be submitted directly to the Accounting Office by the supplier as outlined on the purchase order (apinvoice@ucr.edu or Transcepta).

PO Receivers: Ensure POs are received promptly by the designated PO Receiver when goods or services are received and no issues with the goods or services have been identified. Departments should review POs within their Accountability Structure (using the “UCR Purchase Order Detail Report” and/or “UCR PO Encumbrance Report”) to identify goods that have been received in good condition and/or services that were satisfactorily performed but have not been received in Oracle. Outstanding issues should be discussed and resolved with the department transactor to ensure suppliers are promptly paid and the expenditure is recorded to the ledger timely.

Invoice Approvers: The designated department invoice approver should promptly review invoices and approve as appropriate. If the invoice cannot be approved promptly, please communicate the concern with Accounts Payable. For project-related invoices over $10K and all Subaward invoices, the department C&G analyst (who receives FYI emails on the approval notifications to the PI) should coordinate with the Principal Investigator to review and approve invoices promptly.

Procurement Services 

06/22/26

5:00 PM

Supply and/or Services Orders less than $100,000 

The last day Procurement Services will accept requisitions against this year’s appropriations to ensure issuance of orders by June 30 is approaching. To qualify as a bona fide encumbrance, a valid purchase order must be issued to a supplier by Procurement Services on or before June 30. This deadline applies to all expense account classifications except supply/service orders over $100,000, equipment, and blanket orders, which have an earlier cutoff date. It does not apply to contract and grant funds or other funding sources with expiration dates beyond June 30.

If you have questions regarding the preparation of your requisitions, please contact a buyer in Procurement Services. A list of buyers and their commodity assignments can be found on the Procurement Services website: https://bfs.ucr.edu/who-does-what#procurement-services. Please plan your purchases well in advance to allow Procurement Services to meet deadlines, obtain best value, and comply with procurement requirements. Note that order complexity may result in delays, and such orders may not be reflected as commitments on the June ledgers.
