Transaction Processing

Transaction processing includes non-purchase order payments initiated via a Direct Payment Request (DPR) via the WayneBuy eProcurement system, an Internal Requisition and Inter-Account Bill (IRB) form or travel expenses processed through the TravelWayne system.  These transactions are facilitated by the Disbursements department within Business Services. 

Activities:

  • Ensure that transaction is properly authorized by management.
  • Ensure that there is available budget to fund the transaction.
  • Validate the target index and related fund-org-acct-program-activity-location (FOAPAL) string.
  • Ensure that all transactions are in compliance with policy e.g., APPM.
  • Complete the appropriate manual form or process accurately and timely.
  • Encumber and/or approve the transaction in Banner, as applicable.  Obtain manual or electronic approvals.  Electronic WayneBuy approval queues should be maintained in compliance with University Policy 15-1 and reviewed periodically.
  • Submit forms, if applicable, to the appropriate department for processing (electronically via WayneBuy or TravelWayne; IRB to the department which provided the service or goods for further processing).
  • Receive the goods online, if applicable upon receipt of shipment or completion of service.
