Advertising purchases

In light of bills not getting paid, we are implementing procedures that should smooth out the process----keep our vendors happy and insure that your budget is correct for the amounts being expended.

To accomplish this, here is what we need to do.

  1. You recognize the need for print/television/internet advertising.
  2. You MUST complete a requisition via the BANNER system.
  3. Accounts Payable will turn the Req into a PO.
  4. You will receive a copy of the PO and the Director of Public Information will receive the vendor copy of the PO.
  5. Director of Public Information will notify the vendor of the required advertising as described on the PO.
  6. When Director of Public Information receives the Invoice, she will code it against the PO and send to the Business Office for payment.
  7. Director of Public Information will send your dept a copy of the invoice. Do not pay it again.

If you authorize advertising without the PO, please be prepared to pay for it yourself.
