expenses, for materials and services when use of a purchase order
or travel voucher (or VIP card) is not possible, and when the use
of petty cash is not feasible. Receipts or other documentation must
be attached to this request." Send signed originals and any receipts/documents
to Accounts Payable E19-545. Keep a copy for your records/account
reconciliation.
