Shared Collections Process

Departments Work with OCGA to ensure clear billing terms and conditions prior

to agreement on the award. Try to get payment in full up front

Work with PI to ensure that he/she submits all necessary reports and documentation such as progress reports so payments are not delayed

As needed, review outstanding invoices (A/R) using the General Ledger Trial Balance, General Ledger Transaction and/or the AR Aging report in Financial Link

Ask your OPAFS accountant or use the Document Lookup Tool for any correspondence regarding A/R

If there is outstanding A/R, work with your PI to slow/stop work until payment resolution
