Invoicing SFUSD ExCEL Invoicing Procedure
Invoicing and Allowable Expenses • Expenses must supplement and not SUPPLANT expenses. Items purchased must be utilized entirely for ExCEL student programming or multiple funding sources must be utilized i.e. match funds. • School-wide expenses may not be funded solely using ExCEL grant funds. With pre-approval, a portion of event, postage or other related expense may be allowable if directly related to the ExCEL program students.
Invoicing and Allowable Expenses • It is difficult to be all inclusive in a list of what is allowed. We cannot anticipate everything so when in doubt, ASK before you spend. We want to work with you to “get it right” and to make the invoicing process as simple as possible. • All ExCEL Approval forms must be submitted for review and pre-approval IN ADVANCE of any expenditures or related activities taking place.
CBO Expenditure Approval Form for Allowable Expenses • Submit to your District Coordinator for approval before purchasing the item. • Include rational and all needed attachments before submitting to your District Coordinator. • Include APPROVEDCBO Expenditure Approval Form for Allowable Expenses in invoice along with the receipt of the item.
Cover page - Mandatory Summary page - optional PAGE 2 PAGE 1
Monthly Invoice • The second page of the invoice is not mandatory. • If you choose not to use this page, you will need to input your expenses directly into the invoice template each month. • If you choose not to use the second page summary sheet, you must submit a summary sheet of your own that clearly outlines what expenses are charged to the corresponding line item • Each invoice MUST have a unique invoice number. Invoice numbers can consist of the first four letters of the school site name – month- year (two digits) and the school code. For example, an August 2013 invoice for Roosevelt would look like this: • ROOS-08-13-797 • No two invoices should have the same invoice number. For sites with multiple grants, the invoice number must differentiate between grants. For example: • ROOS-08-13-797-ASES
Tips for Faster Invoice Processing • Please do not staple the supporting documents inside the invoices. Paper or Binder Clips are requested. • As a first choice for Invoice Numbers, please use our example: • 1stfour letters of School Name—Month—Year—School ID #—Grant • Examples: • Dual Accounts: • LAKE-01-13-670-21STC • LAKE-01-13-670-ASES • Single Accounts: ROOS-09-13-797-FL • If you have a unique invoice number per invoice per month you’d like to use, please be consistent throughout the year. Do not use the same invoice number twice, as there were lots of duplicate account numbers last year. • Please make sure the following information is correct on the invoice: • Purchase Order (PO) number • K-Reso Number • SACS Codes
Invoice Dos • DOinclude back up documents and spreadsheets outlining the amount billed to ExCEL. If only a certain percentage of staff salary will be billed to ExCEL, please indicate on your back-up documents or create a spreadsheet outlining the amount billed to ExCEL. • DO make sure photocopied receipts are clear with items purchased and prices clearly legible. • DO make sure each receipt is itemized. For receipts from small businesses (produce stores, neighborhood stores) that do not offer itemized receipts, please list items that were purchased on the copy of the receipt. • DO be sure to circle the total on the receipt. • DO be sure to indicate the reason for purchase, for example: “materials for cooking class.” • For Internet purchases, DO be sure to indicate the purchase on your General Ledger OR provide a credit card statement indicating that this purchase was paid for. • For items that need approval, DO be sure to include a copy of the signed CBO Expense Approval Form for that particular purchase you are billing for. • DO make sure the math adds up! • DOemail your DC in advance about unique situations relating to the invoice. Don’t wait for us to figure it out. This will delay the processing of your invoices. • DO make sure you turn in Budget Revisions on time. Budget Revisions are done twice a year (November and February). • DO be sure to include a detailed lesson plans that includes educational objectives if purchases of junk food-like materials for a lesson or activity were made, please include a detailed lesson plan.
Invoice Don’ts • DON’T include receipts not billed to ExCEL. This will cause confusion and slow down processing. If it is easier to photocopy receipts together, please clearly cross out receipts not included in the billing with a large “X” (Costco puts a slash across their receipts at the door so please don’t do the slash) and clearly note “not ExCEL.” • DON’T include personal items on receipts. • DON’T include a lost receipt document. No lost receipts! • DON’T Draw or write on your receipts. If the copy is too light, try to make a darker copy. • DON’T include information that is not pertinent! • DON’T invoice over the contracted amount for the year. • DON’T invoice over the administrative budget for the year. • DON’T staple supporting documents. Paper or Binder Clips are requested. Single sided copies only.
