Encumbrance Lifter Overview  
 
Summary: Learn about the new online process to lift encumbrances.

The encumbrance lifter is a new journal process designed to remove or reduce encumbrances, also referred to as liens, from the encumbrance ledger.

Advantages of the encumbrance lifter include:
  • Easy selection of encumbrances to be lifted or reduced
  • Automatic creation of Integrated Financial Information System (IFIS) transactions
  • Less key entry (due to automatic data updates)
With the encumbrance lifter, you can:
  • Use the query tool to find and filter encumbrances.
  • Remove or reduce the encumbrance balance from the encumbrance ledger.
  • Automatically create a journal voucher based on the selections you made.
The encumbrance lifter does NOT prevent future payments on received invoices or preauthorized travel. It also doesn't allow you to increase or transfer an encumbrance.

Learn How to Use the Encumbrance Lifter.

If you lifted or reduced an encumbrance in error:
  • Make a copy of the Encumbrance Lifter Confirmation screen.
  • Indicate the line(s) that need to be reversed.
  • Fax or mail these to:
    General Accounting
    Mail Code: 0953
    Fax: (858) 534-8533
Note: You cannot request a change order to a High Value Purchase Order to reverse an encumbrance that was lifted or reduced in error. Find out more about the change order process.
