Overview

---

This KBA is intended to:

• Help users identify each type of Project Commitment
• Provide information on how each type is created and lifted
• Provide guidance on troubleshooting any Commitment questions or issues

Critical Concepts

---

• Commitments are updated every 24 hours
• Commitments must be lifted in their respective systems, and cannot be removed from the Costs module
• For more information on Invoice, PO, and Concur Commitments, including how to lift them, please refer to the Viewing and Lifting Commitments for Concur and Oracle Blink page
