Accounts Payable (AP) processes invoice payments for purchase orders issued by MSU Procurement. Invoices must arrive in AP referencing a valid PO number or the payment may not be processed. Documents with missing PO numbers will be returned to the supplier or department (if referenced). Independent Contractor payments are also made through Accounts Payable.
To allow for prompt processing, suppliers should submit invoices directly to AP. Departments can submit invoices on a supplier's behalf, if the invoice is misdirected. Regardless of submission method, invoices are electronically routed in KFS for departmental approval and retention. In alignment with the Office of the Controller’s processing schedule, checks are cut and ACH payments processed on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
