SAO Rebill
Research Appointments
Research Administration
Events Administration
The purpose of the rebill is to financially bridge the gap between Harvard College Observatory (HCO) and the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory (SAO) and allow both institutions to take advantage of the benefits each has. It is a Harvard account which costs (shared by the SAO) are charged to so they may be invoiced and repaid. All charges to the rebill are expected to have a Smithsonian Purchase Order and filled HCO Rebill Form available and submitted to the HCO Business Office.

FAQs
Do charges on the rebill need to be split between SAO and HCO?
Yes. If you have a charge that should be 100% paid for by the Smithsonian please contact the AP group at fm-ap@cfa.harvard.edu and use different payment methods.
Is there anything I should not be charging to the rebill?
The Smithsonian will never reimburse alcohol. Aside from this, please check with your Smithsonian financial contact to ensure all charges will be paid for upon invoicing.
