With the exception of professional memberships and certifications, these expenses represent unauthorized purchases according to UC Procurement Policy. All purchases of goods or services on behalf of the university are required to follow appropriate procurement processes and procedures. For expenses not related to travel or entertainment, this usually includes explicit approval by authorized personnel before the purchase occurs.

Dear colleagues,

When making a purchase on behalf of UC Davis, it is expected that employees use approved purchasing methods (see our “How do I Buy” chart).

All UC Davis travel and entertainment expenses must be authorized, reported and reimbursed in accordance with University of California policies G-28 and BUS-79.
