Encumbrances on Expiring Appropriations

Appropriations expiring at the end of a fiscal year must be fully spent or encumbered by August 31.

  • Encumbrances: Certain encumbrances cannot be paid in the next fiscal year: travel, utilities, consumables, and services.
  • Non-encumbered expenses (P-card, ITVs) will not be allowed to post after September 10 of the expiring year.

The following account codes have limitations on what can be paid after August 31.

  • Travel can only be paid if the travel start date is before August 31.
  • Utilities can only be paid current year and September billing in the next year (for August expenses).
  • Consumables and services are expensed based on the receipt date in TechBuy. If not received by August 31, the encumbrance must be moved to an alternate source of funds.
