1. VENDOR CHANGE (ADDRESS OR DIRECT DEPOSIT)
In order to mitigate the risk of fraud, Accounts Payable will not process any banking and/or payment address changes to a vendor unless validated and confirmed by the Department.  The best practice for reducing this risk is to verify the requestor/request.  If the request came via email, fax, or mail, the Department should verify via phone call using the phone number on file or publicly available.  If the request came by phone, verify it by email using the email on file.  After confirming the updated address and/or direct deposit information, please note the verification in the comments section of the voucher.  If you have any questions, please contact Tamara Harley at extension 2843 or Crystal Flores at extension 2842.

2. ACCOUNTS PAYABLE
On Monday, January 15th, the University will observe the Martin Luther King Holiday.  All Accounts Payable Vouchers which must be paid on Friday, January 19th, must be received in the Accounts Payable inbox no later than Friday, January 12th at 4:00pm. Payment requests received beyond this deadline will be processed for payment on January 26th. Keep in mind that Wesleyan’s payment terms determine when a payment is made.
