The individual [[Presidencies]] would have had their own [[Commissariat]]s for military supplies, as did military expeditions such as the [[Bengal Army]]'s 1810-1812 [[Mauritius Campaign|Mauritius Expedition]]. The position was linked to an accounting role responsible for military expenditure. Later the accounting role became separated and the responsibility of the Military Auditor General.
Due to army reorganisation in the 1880's1880s, the [[British Army]] had Commissariat Generals for both the [[OrdnanceDepartment]] Department (arms); and the Commissariat and Transport Staff (general stores and transport) which later came under the control of the Office of the [[Quarter Master General]] in India.
