All of these emails will be posted on the “Communications” page of the site.
You can find useful document and forms along with helpful links.

Good morning, all,
The ESE has received feedback from the central UW Accounts Payable team regarding the “request category” used when setting up a misc. payee’s profile for a UW student.
Previously, when you were submitting a Misc. Payment for a student that purchased goods on behalf of the UW, the “request category” selected needed to be “refund” to disable 1099 reporting for Misc Payee type – Student.
Now, Accounts Payable states that we need to use the “request category” – “Reimbursement” in these cases to disable 1099 reporting. Please take note of this and adjust your documentation accordingly.
This does not apply to non-employee travel for students. Please continue to use the “request category” – “non-employee travel”.
If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out.
Thank you,

Morning all!
This is a little delayed, but the ESE wanted to keep everyone informed.
One of our travel specialists, Cisco Montano, has taken a role with the Seattle Fire Department. His exit was abrupt as he only had two days’ notice to prepare for training after being selected. We wish him the best of luck at this fantastic opportunity!
This does means that our team is down one reimbursement specialist, and we are seeing an uptick in requests as well. Our wait times are longer than the normal 2 business days as we search for a replacement. Wait times currently are 3-5 business days.
If you have any urgent requests, please feel free to reach out to Stephanie Nevin (nevin11) and I with a REF number and we can prioritize.
Thank you!

Good afternoon all!
The ESE has retired our old listserv that was set up when we were part of the Collaboration Core – CCoreCoEfisc@uw.edu.
You will now receive messages from the ESE listserv from the following address – Engineering_shared_environment@uw.edu.
No need to request being added to the new listserv if you were part of the CCoreCoEfisc listserv as your email addresses have been moved over to the new Engineering_shared_environment address.
Thank you all!
