Change to Miscellaneous Payment Request Process
Effective Wednesday, April 14 (4/14), changes will be made on who can initiate a Miscellaneous Payment Request.
Instead of being initiated by any campus employee or contingent worker, Miscellaneous Payment Request initiators will only be those with the Expense Data Entry Specialist (EDES) and Cost Center Accountant (CCA) roles. This change will allow the sharing and re-using of payees among initiators, instead of having to create new payees. This will save administrative time for both staff and payees.
Transactions in progress: Currently there are hundreds of Miscellaneous Payment Requests “In Draft” or “In Progress.” The EDES or CCA within your college or unit will be able to pick up work on these miscellaneous payments once this change is effective. Drafts from a prior month should be cancelled by the CCA or EDES.
The Administrative Resource Center (ARC) contains several job aids listed below for guidance.
