Expedited Payment Requests also known as EPRs, are for emergency situations where a payment is needed as soon as possible. EPRs should be submitted in Chrome River for non-purchase order vendor payments and a business justification must be provided in the request.
University Payables reserves the right to determine what constitutes an emergency on a case-by-case basis. The following payment types are not subject to expedited payment and must follow the normal payment request procedures:
- Employee reimbursements
- Human Subject Payments
- Non-employee travel reimbursement
- Purchase order payments
- Refunds
- Services already rendered
- Shipping fees
- Sub-contract award payments
- Temp Vendor Payments
- Utility payments
EPRs should be used in limited circumstances and should not be a normal payment mechanism.
