Travel Updates

Travel requests should be on file prior to dates of travel.

Mileage to Cinco Ranch is the same as mileage to Katy, Texas - 111.5 miles.

Travel voucher forms need to include an legal descriptive text on the back of page one that includes a benefit/purpose statement.

Central Receiving

Make sure to request the Department name or account number is referenced in the ship to address. This will help in processing packages to the correct department.

We are changing the name of our training from A/P, Mail Services, Facilities, Purchase and Travel Training to A & F Training.

Accounts Payable

In September 1999, Cabinet asked the Finance Department to communicate voucher errors to the department instead of returning vouchers. Finance has been making copies of the corrected vouchers and returning

to departments. Finance currently has discontinued this procedure because of the time it takes to make copies. Finance will also ask Cabinet to require mandatory training in PeopleSoft voucher creation.

50% of all vouchers received by the Finance Department have been incorrect. Each incorrect voucher contains at least 2 errors.

Since there is a possibility that there will be post audits, the Finance department’s job could become a problem solver or an arbitrator between department and vendor.
