HCOM Users,

With the shift to remote operations, Harvard University Central AP and Cash Receipts have implemented new guidance and procedures . These guidelines are effective immediately; we should NO longer be sending paper invoices to Central. Attached are detailed instructions. Please read the 2 attached documents carefully for detailed guidance:

1) COVID-19 Invoice and Payment Guidelines - SPH (supports paperless invoice and payment processing)

• Information on how invoices should be emailed to Central AP for processing
• Information on using Harvard-issued credit cards for essential purchases
• Information on emailing backup for Non-employee Reimbursements to Central AP for processing
• Guidance that Concur reports should continue to be processed for Employee Reimbursements and Corporate Card Payments.
• Resources included on how to use the Concur App

2) COVID-19 Cash Receipts Guidance - SPH (for non-sponsored or non-gift deposits only)

• In general, checks should be retained and deposited when we return.
• As of now, Central Cash Receipts will be open normal business hours every Thursday (this may change).
• If necessary, you can make a deposit directly at any Bank of America branch. Deposit slips will be available at the branch. Attached document provides detailed instructions that must be followed.
