May 2023 Special Edition - Important Upcoming Deadlines

Upcoming May Deadlines

Here is a quick and easy checklist of upcoming deadlines. These dates reflect when AST needs to receive requests in order to guarantee that we have enough time to process them, gather any additional information needed, and approve the transactions before their central UW deadlines.

Please refer to the color-coding below to see which deadlines are pertinent to you and your team:

  • Yellow-shaded deadlines are Payments and Procurement specific. (Note: If you currently hold a Funding Approver role in Ariba, please check your Ariba queue daily as we get closer to Go-Live. All Ariba items need to be fully approved before the Ariba freeze date to ensure the transactions get posted to the current biennium. Please ensure reimbursement requests have been approved in Ariba for UW employees.)

  • Blue-shaded deadlines are HR and Payroll specific.
