Campus Invoicing

1.0 Purpose
To centralize invoicing and receivable tracking across campus and to ensure that payments are mailed directly to the Cashier’s Office.  The Cashier’s office is the central collection point for payments on these invoices, and should always have a copy of the invoice on hand.

2.0 Policy
When a department performs services or supplies products to an external location, an invoice should be created using the campus invoice template created by the Accounts Receivable Office.  This invoice should be completed in its entirety.  One copy should be sent to the customer, and another copy must be sent to Accounts Receivable (Room 2004, Kelly Administration Building) or electronically via GroupWise to , with a copy retained in the departmental file.  The invoice clearly states that payment for this invoice should be remitted to the Cashier’s Office address.  Upon receipt of payment, it will be entered into PeopleSoft Financials with the invoice number clearly entered into the journal description field, and the check number entered into the reference field.  This information is visible on the Budget Transaction Detail Report and in PeopleSoft Query.
