  • Electronic receipts are required for all out-of-pocket expenses; copies of credit-card statements do not constitute valid receipts. For purchases that are made on department credit cards copies of receipts are permitted because financial operations require originals to be sent with cost allocation reports each month.  All other purchases must have original receipts to be reimbursed.  Invoices sent to you from online purchases are also permissible.
