We have been working to establish an object code related to tariffs. We are anticipating that at some point, we will be requested to provide the financial impact that tariffs have on the institution. While not all invoices/quotes, etc. provide this breakdown and we acknowledge that some tariffs surcharges may be indeterminable; however, when itemized, departments should use the new object to record this expense.

The tariffs object code 8705075 is now available in Oracle for the breakout of foreign tariff surcharges. This object code is available in PO Requisitions, PCARD, and the following Payment Request types:

• Construction Contract Payments
• Disbursement Requisition – All Other
• Other Shipping/Postage
• Photocopy Services
• Repairs and Maintenance
• Subscriptions and Books
• Supplies and Merchandise
