Basic Rules

  • You can't approve on both the Payment Approval and Financial Approval pages. If this is unavoidable, the Financial Approval step will be completed with the auto-approve step currently set for 7 days.
  • Other than the above, anyone with a CAS login and the link to the payment page may do the payment approval step. This can involve entering or editing chart strings, notes, and approving.
  • Recharges do not have tax or coupons. If you entered these for a credit card and switch to a recharge, they will be cleared out.
  • Any chart string entered must be valid.
  • The natural account portion of the chart string may be automatically replaced with either 775000 or 770006.
  • One or more credit chart strings must be entered. They are not defaulted and the total must match the invoice total.
  • If debit chart strings are entered, they must be valid and must match the total of the invoice.

Payment Step

  • The payment approval step does not have a reject option.
  • The payment page allows valid debit chart strings to be entered and edited. Existing debit chart strings may be deleted if there are more than one listed.
  • Each chart string may have optional notes.
  • Each chart string must have a valid $ amount.
  • All amounts must add up to 100% of the invoice total.
  • Invoices may not have coupons applied to them.

Financial Approval Step

  • The Financial Approval step only allows financial approvers determined by Aggie Enterprise's settings for the chart strings to act.
  • Only valid chart strings may be entered and approved.
  • Financial Approvers may reject the entire invoice.
  • Financial Approvers may approve the chart strings they have access to.
  • Financial Approvers may change a chart string they have access to for a different chart string they also have access to.
  • Financial Approvers may not edit the amount or notes.
  • The Financial Approval page may show various status information such as the status or access messages.
  • The Financial Approval page will show who approved each chart string when approvals are done.
  • There is a system-configurable number of days where any pending Financial Approvals will be auto-approved by the system. Currently this is 7 days. These will be logged and visible.
  • When all chart strings are approved, the invoice will move along for the actual money movement.

Workflow

  • Create recharge invoice.
  • Save or Send invoice.
  • Edit saved invoice.
  • Send unsent invoice.
  • Customer gets email, opens CAS-protected Payment page.
  • Customer approves, or edits and approves invoice.
  • Financial Approvers (determined by Aggie Enterprise based on the debit chart strings used) get emails.
  • Financial Approvers Approve or Reject invoice. Reject requires a reason and can be done up until all chart strings have been approved.
  • Rejected invoices may be edited and re-sent.

Functionality

  • You may filter the existing list of invoices to either recharge or credit cards by typing recharge or credit into the search field.
  • You may filter the invoices by any of the status listed in the filter. There are some new ones for recharges. Filters are sticky.
  • You may enter a % for the chart string and it will try to update the amount. However, the amount is the saved field — not the percentage.
  • You can't tab to the % field to avoid accidentally changing the $ amount when tabbing off it. You must use the mouse to enter the % field.
  • Recharge and Credit Card invoices may be duplicated. This will be logged in the history of both the original invoice and the new one.
