Payment Voucher Browser
Payment Vouchers are the vehicle by which Projector reimburses resources or pays vendors. If your organization wishes to perform the following actions, you'll likely find yourself visiting the payment voucher browser.
- use company issued credit cards
- perform credit card reconciliations
- pay multiple expense reports with a single payment
- pay a single expense report with multiple payments
Organizations that don’t require these capabilities will not need to work with Payment Vouchers at all since Projector will automatically create and manage them directly.
The payment voucher browser can be reached by choosing View Menu | Time and Expense | Payment Voucher Browser.
Permissions and Settings
You must have the Administer Expense Document Payment Workflow permission enabled for the an expense document's cost center to view, approve, or change the status of payment vouchers.
Naming
Payment vouchers have a specific naming convention. When you mark a payment voucher Paid from Cost Approvals, the payment voucher name is based on the name of the source expense document. Â
Source Expense Document | Voucher Name |
---|---|
ER00123 | PVER00123.1 |
VI00987 | PVVI00987.1 |
SUB00111 | PVSUB00111.1 |
If you manually create a payment voucher, there will be no prefix or postfix. For example, PV00023. *Special note about Projector Web - payment vouchers for company credit cards do not generate prefix/postfix, while ones created here do.
