The process for getting revenue into the University starts with a point-of-sale system. When a transaction is started in a point-of-sale system, that system contacts a payment processor to verify the payment. The payment processor is Elavon. When the payment processor is contacted about a payment, they check with the credit card company to confirm the payment. The credit card companies respond with an “approve” or “deny” message, which is sent back to the point-of-sale system. This process only takes a few seconds.

We had to embed an approval step as part of the Preparer workflow so that we could ensure separation of duties should someone inadvertently be identified as both the Preparer and the Approver.  In Workday world, a “Review” step (which is what allows for the Preparer to note variances, etc.) is not considered a formal approval so we had to insert that automated step to ensure systematic controls.  You do not have to take action.  The Account Certification is now sitting with the Approver.  The visual below helps clarify this.
