Emergency Purchases
Purchasing items without following university policy is not allowed and will be reported. The eCR Form can be used for emergency purchases that don't follow the usual purchasing process at the University. However, Materials Management recognizes that real emergencies can happen during regular business hours. If a purchase is non-compliant and not approved by Materials Management, as per University and North Carolina policy, the person who made the purchase must pay for it or return the items to the supplier. The eCR form cannot be used for employee reimbursements.
To access the eCR Form
- Click the Shop icon and select the eCR Form from the Forms Showcase. Fill out the form.
- Select Add and Go to Cart from the drop-down menu in the top right corner.
- Click on the Proceed to Checkout button to enter the FOAP (Fund, Org, Acct. Prog) code, or use the Assign Cart button to send the cart to someone else to add the FOAP and submit for approval.
