The Accounts Payable Department works closely with our Procurement Department to help provide payments for goods and services acquired by the University. Our mission is:

• To approve and process disbursement documents and transactions in a timely, consistent, and accurate manner. This includes petty cash, cash advance, payment requests, purchase order invoices, and University commercial card transactions.
   
• To ensure that all disbursements are made in compliance with University policies and procedures and federal, state, local, and professional standards.
   
• To preserve a high level of integrity in maintaining vendor records.
   
• To identify potentially taxable transactions and report them to the appropriate department or government agency.
   
• To provide quality service, training, and information to departments and vendors.
