As of March 22, 2021, Contracts, Purchasing & Risk Management (CPRM) will be handling all Purchase Requests (requisitions/POs/Staples/Amazon orders), invoice payments, PCard approvals, deposits, and travel reimbursements.

• Use the Employee Service Center portal to enter any Financial and Human Resource transaction requests.
• Please follow these instructions for properly reconciling your PCard transactions. If you need assistance, fill out a PCard Reconciliation Assistance ticket.
• New fiscal year/blanket purchase orders will need to be submitted through the Employee Service Center portal.

Invoices will be forwarded from CaPCOT Financials or NAU Accounts Payable for payment approval. The department is responsible for attaching the invoice to the Purchase Requisition case in the Employee Service Center portal.

NAU requires approval by the requestor to verify the charges on the invoice are correct and all materials have been received (POLICY PUR 600-01).

It is the responsibility of the requestor to contact the vendor if there are any issues with the invoice (incorrect charges, missing/damaged product, etc.). Contact Financials or CPRM for assistance and include CaPCOT-Financials on all email correspondence.

NOTE: Make sure to notate in the Purchase Request case ticket if the invoice is a pass-through expense to a work order or external vendor. CaPCOT Financials is responsible for entering invoices on work orders and creating invoices to vendors (see Accounts Receivable section).

CaPCOT Financials will continue to process Fiscal Year End Transfers as requested.

Please refer to the Comptroller’s Office Fiscal Year End Calendar for specific cutoff dates for creating year-end purchase orders, requesting change orders, ordering Staples supplies, and making purchases using a PCard.  

Note: All products purchased in the current fiscal year MUST be physically received no later than June 30th.

CaPCOT Financials will be the central repository for submitting invoices on behalf of CaPCOT departments. If you have an expense that a vendor is going to be responsible for paying, please send the following information to CaPCOT-Financials:

• Vendor name, address, main contact person, and Email address.
• Amount to be billed.
• Supporting documentation (invoices, expense summary, etc.) and/or justification for the invoice.

CaPCOT Financials provides budget oversight assistance when reconciling monthly department budgets and submitting yearly budget requests to the Vice President and Budget Office for approvals. If you would like assistance with setting up a budget reconciliation report, please contact CaPCOT-Financials.
