SECTION OVERVIEW AND POLICIES

The purpose of this section is to provide guidance to Business Units for preparing and submitting vouchers to the Office of the State Comptroller (OSC) for payment in the Statewide Financial System (SFS).

Beginning with the implementation of SFS, Business Units are no longer required to send paper vouchers and supporting documentation to the Bureau of State Expenditures (BSE) in order to initiate payment (with the exception of payments for land purchases). Instead, Business Units will enter information onto SFS and maintain all documentation in support of the payment in accordance with the record retention policy outlined in Section 3 – Record Retention – Accounts Payable Vouchers and Land Claims of this Chapter. Upon request, Business Units are required to provide certain information with their payment submission to OSC.
