The State of North Carolina requires all state agencies to maintain Asset Management systems. The State Controller's Office requires an annual physical equipment inventory to be conducted by each campus department.
Campus departments are responsible for tagging and accounting for their Capitalized Equipment items. Asset Management tracks the purchase of Capitalized Equipment items each month and will provide reports and forms for department representatives to facilitate this process.
Equipment missing or stolen during normal operations is reported immediately. Investigations follow the report in an effort to recover the property or its cost.
Equipment reported as missing during a department's annual physical inventory is tracked in the records of Capitalized Equipment.
Equipment owned by UNC-CH must remain on campus.
Asset Management is notified any time that Capital Equipment is sold or transferred to another University department.
University equipment can be acquired through a variety of funding sources. As such, approval channels for transfer of equipment to other institutions will vary. The approval process requires approximately sixty days lead time to complete.
Items that have become obsolete or no longer needed are to be sent to the University Surplus Property Warehouse.
University-owned surplus property must be turned in to the University's Surplus Property Warehouse at the end of the useful life of the equipment.
The University established this policy in accordance with North Carolina General Statute (N.C.G.S.) Chapter 75, subsections 61 and 62 to protect individual records and information and to prevent involuntary disclosure of individual social security numbers.
Central Receiving was established to document the accurate quantity and condition of items delivered to the University, and provide for safe delivery of items to campus.

Returns of materials or equipment acquired with a purchase order require authorization from the vendor and documentation in the purchase order system to receive credit for the return. Returns of items acquired through Campus Voucher, P-Card or eProcurement are handled by the department placing the order.
