Permissions

What are "permissions"? Permissions include online budget review access, online requisition access, and approval for all requisitions.

Online budget review in Banner allows a person to view FOAPAL information. The information is always current. This ability to view budget information online must be set up by FOAPAL. More than one person may have access to the same FOAPAL information in Banner.

Online requisition in Banner allows a person to submit purchase orders or check requests online. Online requisition must also be set up by FOAPAL. More than one person may have access to the same FOAPAL.

The Purchasing/Accounts Payable department keeps a record of who is allowed to approve purchase orders and check requests, whether manual or online. There is a primary and secondary person responsible for approval. Dollar levels can also be designated. If no dollar levels are designated, the assumption is that a second approval would be needed from the line officer for purchases over $500.

If any staff leave, new staff are added, or responsibilities change, contact Human Resources, as well as Nancy Eastham x6577 and Kathy Johnson x6551.
