What information is needed on a request for payment for reimbursement?
When submitting a request for payment, we will need the cost object, the general ledger account, the name of the person/vendor to be reimbursed, the original receipts as backup, an explanation of the purchase and an authorized approval signature for the cost object being charged (needs to be in Roles Database). Note that MIT does not reimburse for sales tax since we are tax exempt. Accounts Payable will deduct sales tax from reimbursements. We strongly recommend using our Procurement card as a mechanism of payment to vendors to avoid filling out and processing requests for payment. This saves time and effort.
