Tips   Select a receipt or milestone

Select a purchase order or contract receipt to work on or view, or, if authorized, a milestone to verify. You can also use Explore Search on the Home page to find the milestone tracker (MT) to use to verify the milestone.

Submit a receipt during the same session that you enter receipt details, so approvers and other users know the current status of the receipt. By submitting receipts immediately after entering the details, you ensure the receipt status is up to date, and that you maintain a clean audit trail, should you need to review the receipt history later.
