Cash Receipts - Help

All Departments must use the Cash Receipts system to record receipt of all cash, checks, wires and credit card payments. Cash receipts for revenue contracts interface to the Contract Database and Contract AR system where you can track payment on those contracts.

The Cash Receipts system allows for departmental deposit information entry, electronic routing and approval. The system also has the capability of returning an online cash receipt for correction. Reports are available to help you monitor the cash receipting process.

The system can be accessed from:

The Cash Receipts system is also available from the Contracting website by using Contract AR/Billing via the External Links at the top of the banner page.

This document, containing details about the Cash Receipts system, and an online video tutorial are available by clicking Help in the menu bar on the left side of the Cash Receipts page.
