What happens to a Purchase Requisition if the budget is not approved in GFEBS?

When a budget associated with a Purchase Requisition is not approved in GFEBS (General Fund Enterprise Business System), the Purchase Requisition is rejected. This means that unless there is an approved budget to cover the costs associated with the requisition, the request cannot move forward. The rejection helps maintain fiscal responsibility and ensures that spending aligns with approved budgets, thereby preventing unauthorized or unplanned expenditures.

In this context, it is crucial for users of GFEBS to understand the importance of obtaining budgetary approval before creating or submitting a Purchase Requisition. The system is designed to uphold fiscal controls and only allow transactions that have been properly vetted through budgetary processes. This ensures alignment with financial management policies and helps maintain organizational accountability regarding spending.
