Fiscal Operations Manual
Section 400: Expenditures
Effective: 01/01/2003
Revised: 11/11/2010

Campus unis may purchase items from the OSU Bookstore for unit operations, and charge them to the unit.  The employee must show his/her staff ID and provide an index.  The receipt should be given to the Business Center accounting staff so the billing can be reconciled at the end of the month.

Auxiliary enterprises are also able to use the OSU Bookstore for purchases of items used by the department in daily operations.  However, student books cannot be charged via the auto-pay process.  Books must be paid for directly by the department [for example, when Intercollegiate Athletics purchases books for student athletes on scholarships (grant in aid program)].
