Approval of an Oracle Payment Request
All Oracle Payment Requests require at least two approvals at the department/school level before the system will forward to the appropriate Central Support. !--The first level of Central Support approval is based on the payment type. Central Support approval for a Payment Request can be Accounting Services, the Accountant, or Student Accounting. The dollar amount as well as the object code may require additional levels of Central Administration approval. When all reviews and approvals are made, the request is sent to Accounts Payable. A check is generated the night of complete approval.
