Purchases and Reimbursements?

All expenditures, other than travel, must be requested on a Kettering Funds Request. A Funds Request can be utilized to request a check, a purchase order, or petty cash. Click here for FAQ's regarding Kettering's Funds Request procedures.

The following are helpful hints pertaining to research expenditures:

Kettering is tax exempt if the check or purchase order is issued directly to the supplier. It is not a tax exempt purchase if a faculty member, staff member, or student purchases an item and requests reimbursement from Kettering. Kettering must be the original/first purchaser from the supplies to be tax exempt.
Original receipts must accompany the funds request for any reimbursement. Receipt/email/invoice must indicate paid in full or zero balance and also indicate form of payment.
Include any required registration forms or other documents to be sent with a check request.
For purchases over $5,000, (3) three quotes are required or a single source memo.
