What happens after funds certification in GFEBS?

After funds certification in GFEBS, the Purchase Requisition (PR) is transmitted to the contracting office for further processing. This step is crucial as it signifies that the financial aspects of the requisition have been validated, ensuring that the necessary funds are available to support the requested purchase. Transmitting the PR to the contracting office is a key action that moves the requisition along the procurement process, allowing the acquisition of goods or services to progress. It indicates readiness for the contracting office to review and initiate the contracting steps, which will lead to formal procurement actions.

Understanding this process emphasizes the importance of proper financial review and certification prior to engaging with contracting, reflecting the structured flow of operations within GFEBS that ensures accountability and oversight in the spending chain.
