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.
