Invoices and payments • Invoices are received either in A/P and emailed to departments or they are sent directly to the department(s) • It is essential to review and send to Accounts Payable for payment immediately (pdf invoices via email are acceptable; faxed invoices are not) • Many vendors charge late fees in accordance with their payment terms and some offer an early payment discount
Do I have to send an “O.K. to pay” to Accounts Payable if I received on-line?
Payment approvals • The on-line receiving is one part of a 3-way match in Banner with the PO, receiving, and payment; this step is for regular PO’s only • It is necessary to approve the invoice for payment; or email AccountsPayable@bridgew.edu that a contracted service has been completed if there is no invoice (i.e. an individual speaker) • Email approvals are a great way to move payments forward quickly
Communication with Accounts Payable • Once goods have been received or a service has taken place, follow up with the vendor for the invoice as needed • Notify Accounts Payable of the payment approval (include the PO#, specify which lines to pay on the p.o. if necessary, and include your full signature if signing the invoice directly • Accounts Payable can pay invoices that fall within the 10% tolerance for each line on the purchase order (up to the contract amount only)
To view payments from an encumbrance • Use FGIENCD to view payments against a Purchase Orders (PO), Travel Authorization (TA), and Open Encumbrance (ENC). When an encumbrance is closed with the final payment, the entire encumbrance balance is liquidated, therefore the liquidated amount is showing instead of the true amount of the invoice.
