RE: IMPORTANT IRIS ANNOUNCEMENT
In order to insure the campus is able to process internal transfers
and
invoices into the fall semester without technical problems, it has
been
decided to delay the implementation of these IRIS transactions on the
department level.
Our Campus Business Office has been processing all invoice payments
and
internal transfers (transfer vouchers) in IRIS. Departments
have been preparing invoices and internal transfers by identifying
the cost
center or WBS element and general ledger account, approving the document
for
payment and forwarding to the Campus Business Office.
DEPARTMENTS SHOULD CONTINUE to send all invoices, T-29's, T-27's, internal
transfers, petty cash and travel reimbursement forms directly to the
Campus
Business Office, UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE.
Departments should continue to process requisitions and procurement
card
transactions in IRIS. Reporting functions relating to the departmental
budgets and financial transactions are accessible through IRIS.
Budget revisions will remain a central Business Office function. The
current
process for making budget revisions will remain in effect, with routing
through the normal administrative approval path with final approval
and
implementation of the revision in the Budget Office.
We are confident that IRIS is the answer to streamlining our business
and
administrative processes. Thank you for your patience and
cooperation.
