Grant Acquittals
What's an acquittal?
Acquitting a grant is reporting on how your club spent the grant in accordance with your club’s aims and activities and, for Discretionary Funding and Camp Grants, its original application. This is a requirement of all grants issued to clubs/societies by the USU grants and must be completed by the date as chosen by the Clubs Team, which will be communicated via relevant Club communications (e.g. C&S newsletter, Club Notices page.).
From 2024 Semester 2 onwards, acquittals are now processed via the Club Finances page on the executive dashboard, as summarised in the Acquittals and the Club Finances page document.
- First, you need to upload a receipt to a grant. Each receipt attachment can be a pdf or image. If your receipt requires any other supporting documentation (e.g. statement by supplier for tax invoice not quoting an ABN, design for a banner purchase, etc.), then it's recommended to merge it with the receipt into one file before uploading.
- Upload receipts to the relevant active grants until you are satisfied you have provided all receipts you wish for all of them.
- Go to Submit an acquittal and hit submit, but only when you are certain you are finished. You cannot edit your receipts or upload new ones once you have pressed "Submit".
