Purchases

For IT purchases please read here


It is the responsibility of all employees to familiarise themselves with the rules prior to any purchase to avoid the risk of having expenses refused by the Aarhus BSS Finance.

All purchases except for travelling purposes (plane tickets, train tickets, hotels etc.) must be made via invoice to the department.

Prior to any purchase you must fill in the MGMT expense form and send it to expensetravel@mgmt.au.dk if the expense is already in your budget.

If your purchase is to be reimbursed in RejsUd, department policy is that settlements in RejsUd are done within 30 days of the purchase/trip..

If the expense is not in your budget, you must obtain a signature from your supervisor if you are a PhD student. All other employees must obtain a signature from the Head of Section or Head of Programme. If the expense is teaching related please send the expense form to expensetravel@mgmt.au.dk

If you are a project owner and the purchase is to be paid by the project you are allowed to sign expense forms and travel applications yourself. It is still mandatory to fill in the forms.

It is the buyer's responsibility to make sure that the filled in form is sent to expensetravel@mgmt.au.dk prior to the purchase.
