Budgeting

Budget Planning is committed to supporting the unit’s current year and long-range financial and strategic planning. Our staff members are engaged in the preparation of the university’s annual operating budget, unit position management, multi-year revenue and expense forecasts, and ad-hoc management reporting. Additional functions include assessing ongoing budget operational issues, establishing monitoring controls for budget and fund allocations, and business process improvements.

Accounting

The accounting section of the Administrative Support Center is responsible for the procurement, accounts payable and accounts receivable fiscal activities for customer departments. This includes procurement and contracting assistance, invoice payments, travel coordination, processing of personal reimbursements and deposits, A/R management (including invoicing), and deposits.

Document Scanning Policy

Receipts, invoices and other accounting documents should be scanned and sent by the customer department through the process outlined on the Invoice Payment page. All original receipts and documents should be kept by the customer department for 30 days after the scanned submission. This ensures that original copies are available in the event that a scanned document is illegible or unprintable. After 30 days, the scanned documents maintained by the Administrative Support Center become the permanent record and all departmental copies can be disposed of.
