What do I do if the Cost Centre is not correct on the eInvoice/Credit Note?

How will I know if I have a Credit Note to approve?

The Credit Note will appear on the P2P – EINVOICE/CREDIT NOTE APPROVAL ALERT and in Agresso as a negative amount.  The Credit Note Ref is also different from the eInvoice Ref (e.g. Credit Note Ref - 32700 & eInvoice Ref - 1020300).

Check the browser settings and make sure that Adobe PDF Reader is enabled as an Add-on.  If this does not resolve the issue please log a call at the Service Desk.

How can I view, print, or save an eInvoice/Credit Note after it has been approved for payment?

Run any browser where you would normally review the expenditure of a Discipline Cost Centre or a Research Cost Centre. Double click on the Transaction Number (e.g. 82100013).

This will bring you into a separate screen where the invoice can be viewed, printed, emailed or saved.

What alert or notification will I be getting as a Traveller/Booker/Budget Holder/Nominee?

The Booker / Budget Holder/nominee(s) will receive an email alert to notify them that there is an eInvoice/Credit Note for approval.  This will be sent every morning until the eInvoice/Credit Note is approved.  The Traveller will not receive any notification unless they are also the Booker.
