1. Year End
2 . New Mileage Rate
3. WFS – Security Request Form
4. July 4 Deadlines

1.  YEAR END
The year end schedule is available on the Finance website.  A year end seminar will be held June 13 at 10:00 in Usdan 108 to go through the schedule in more detail and answer questions.  Some important points regarding year end:

A.  Be sure all denied Smartdocs are either deleted or corrected and resubmitted.  All open Smartdocs must be fully processed or deleted by June 30.

B.  Expenses must be charged in the year in which they occur, which is not necessarily the year in which the invoice was paid.  Contact vendors who have provided unbilled goods or services in Fiscal 11 and ask them to expidite billing.

2. NEW MILEAGE RATE
Beginning July 1, 2011 the mileage rate will be $0.51.

3.  WFS SECURITY REQUEST FORM
A new User Security Request Form has been developed for requesting a new WFS user name or changing access for a current user.  The new form serves the need for both the Financial System and
SFIS (Student/Faculty Information System).  A new employee can get an account set up in both systems by completing just one form.  The form is completed on-line and submitted electronically.  It is automatically forwarded to the people responsible for setting up security in both systems.  The form is attached to both the WFS Blog and the SFIS Blog, both of which can be reached from within your Employee Portfolio.

4. JULY 4 DEADLINES
On Monday, July 4th, the University will observe the Independence Day Holiday.

All AccountsPayable Vouchers which must be processed for Friday, July 8th, must
be received in the Accounts Payable Inbox no later than Friday, July 1st
at 4:00pm.
