1. Purpose

This Statement provides guidelines for departments processing bills to other University departments or activities.

2. General Guidelines

All payments for materials or services between activities or departments must be handled on Interdepartmental Invoices (IDT), or Service Unit Billing Invoices. These forms are used by the Accounting Office to create journal entries between the billing and customer departments.

The billing department is responsible for follow-up on unpaid invoices. The billing and customer departments are responsible for keeping copies of all billings and reconciling them to the departmental monthly transaction reports (AM091).

3. Procedures

Billing units may elect to either obtain an account number to be charged and approval prior to billing or send a bill to the customer department for approval. In either case, the IDT should be the vehicle for the charge.
