A Purchase Requisition Funds Certifier has permission to perform approvals L4 and L5. Note: Because of sedations of duties, the Purchase Requisition Funds Certifier should never do both L4 and L5 certification.
The Funds Certifer must ensure both line of accounting elements are correct in the Account Assignment tab as well funding availability for the requirement.
If funding information is incorrect, the Funds Certifier is responsible for correcting the information to include the fund, functional area, cost object and/or commitment item.
Once the PR is approved, the funds are committed and the approval workflow ends for PRs requiring approval at this stage. The PR is then sent to the system partner such as SPS (contracting) or is available to print and send to the Performing Activity in the case of a MIPR.
Note: Misc Pay subject to Prompt Payment has a different approval process.
