    invoice, you are signing for receipt of goods not

    and what has been done to correct it

    items being returned or damaged items. We will

    complete shipping form 25B.

11
Return Authorization Form 25B
  • Return Authorization Form 25B (See Attachment A)
    is located on the S-Drive under Purchasing
    Procedures and Forms.

    shipping.
  • School District

12
Return Authorization Form 25B Page 2

    Authorization Number (RMA) and instructions on
    how and where to return the merchandise.
  • If the vendor does not require a RMA, document
    name and phone number that authorized the return
    on the Return Authorization Form 25B.

13
Vendor is responsible for return shipment
  • Insert a completed copy of Form 25B in each
    package to be returned to the vendor. Document
    on the form how many boxes you are sending.
  • Seal box securely.
  • Mark the outside of the box with the RMA, (if
    provided).

17
Accounting Deadlines(Attachment B)
  • Please send invoices daily or at least weekly.
  • If an invoice needs to be paid in a specific
    check run, it must be received in accounting by
    the bookkeeper cut off date.

18
Rush Payment
  • Definition After bookkeeper cut off and invoice
    needs to be paid before the next bookkeeper cut
    off.
  • Please email or call Accounts Payable so
    invoice/purchase order can be located for payment
    processing.

Rush Purchase Order/Payment
  • Definition Invoice received prior to a purchase
    order being requested (possibly confirming
    purchase order)
  • If invoice sent to Purchasing as an attachment
    for a purchase order, please sign off on invoice
    before sending it to purchasing. This alleviates
    the invoice being returned to school for an okay
    to pay.

Prepayment Purchase Order/Payment
  • Definition Vendor doesnt accept purchase
    orders and payment will need to be made at time
    of order.
  • If payment document sent to Purchasing as an
    attachment for a purchase order, please sign off
    on it before you send it to purchasing. This
    alleviates the invoice being returned to school
    for an okay to pay.
  • Please let Accounts Payable know if this is a
    rush payment.
  • Procurement card can be used for payment if
    vendor accepts credit cards.
