Encumbrances Not Carried Forward

Using this method, open encumbrances are closed at year-end. Encumbrances in the new fiscal year have different PO numbers. Use POMADExx utilities or ENUTD1 to close last year's encumbrances. ENUTRE is not used.

At year-end, any open encumbrances are closed, and if the encumbrance is to be included in the new fiscal year it must be re-created (i.e., a new PO number). This requires running POMADExx or ENUTD1 to dis-encumber all open encumbrances as of year-end. The main difference between these utilities is in how they allow you to select PO/PRs to be closed. POMADExx lets you create a file of PO/PRs to be closed, then post the file. ENUTD1 lets you select based on a cutoff amount. ENUTD1 has a report-only option and a disencumber option.
