Tips for Getting DPEZs Processed Quickly

Before submitting your Direct Pay Approval (DPA) forms to Financial Services for approval, please be sure that all Departmental approvals have been completed in Banner.  Financial Services can review the DPA form, but CANNOT approve the DPI in Banner, thereby releasing the payment, until all Departmental approvals have taken place.

In cases where Departmental approvals have not been completed, Unrestricted Accounting – Main will provide the courtesy of placing one reminder phone call to the Department.  However, if Departmental approvals have still not occurred within one week, we will return the DPA to the Department.

To find out how to check which Departmental personnel need to approve the DPI in Banner, see Fastinfo question 333.
