Non-Standard Disbursements
The Non-Standard Disbursement (NSD) should only be used if there is an inability to issue a purchase order for services. When a department creates an NSD, and it is approved, there will not be an associated purchase order until a P2P Payment Processor has issued payment. Please note: P2P requests 10 business days from NSD approval for payment to be issued.
