When you need smaller denominations of bills and coins for making change, then please bring your larger cash denominations to Finance, along with a Transmittal of Funds that details the smaller denominations your department needs. Treasury will contact you when your request for change has been processed and available for pick up in Finance.
Cash Float Reimbursements
Cash Float should never be used for purchasing. The amount of cash float should remain the same throughout the year.
