Accounts Payable and Travel Reimbursement – Direct Deposit
If you update the financial institution information for your payroll, the system will not update that same information for reimbursement through Accounts Payable or Travel Expenses.
If you have updated your information with Payroll, you can send an email to traveldesk@sfasu.edu and ask us to update your financial institution information for Accounts Payable/Travel to match what is listed for Payroll.
For those that would like to keep separate accounts for Payroll and Accounts Payable/Travel, you will need to complete a Direct Deposit Authorization Form and send it to traveldesk@sfasu.edu.
