Many of you have expressed a need to use the Single Payment Vendor form for those one-time, small payments needed for various services without the requirement to set up a new vendor for these payments. We have continued to remind Central of our desire for this, and it has finally come to fruition. And yes, it includes honoraria!!
The revised procedures are effective immediately. Procedures for making accounts payable payments using a single payment vendor number (SPV) have been published and are available in the U-wide policy library at: http://www.policy.umn.edu/groups/ppd/documents/procedure/accountspayable_proc03.cfm
A list of Payments Allowed Using Single Payment Vendor (SPV) Numbers can be found at: http://www.policy.umn.edu/groups/ppd/documents/appendix/accountspayable_appd.pdf
To use the SPV process for one of these, a Check Request Form will need to be completed. If you have any questions on this, please contact your senior accountant.
