REMINDER! August Month-End Close Deadline: Validated campus journal entries and data collect batches (journal imports) should be received by Accounting Services by close of business on  (5 p.m.) Thursday, August 31. Please remember that accounting will not receive the journal entries until the journal has been budget checked valid and has passed through all required approvals (including OSR, if necessary).

NEW! PI Dashboard Coming Soon: Based on feedback from Principal Investigators across campus, a new PI Dashboard has been developed and is projected to rollout in September. The dashboard provides a “snapshot” of grant funding and expenses, including salary projections, at both the award level and the project level.  For more information, see the August 14 memo.

NEW!  Changes to the Waiver of Competition Form.  Form 708.1.2f Customer Request for a Brand/Vendor Specific Waiver of Competition has been revised to eliminate some of the signatures needed, as well as retitled to Form 1232.1.1f Customer Request for a Brand/Vendor Specific Waiver of Competition to correspond with the proper policy.  See the August 22 memo for more details.
