Payables Control Hierarchy

In PeopleSoft Payables, business units sit on top of a default hierarchy, or Control Hierarchy, that
facilitates both voucher entry and payment processing. As you formulate your Payables structure,
consider the five informational components of the control hierarchy that are key to Payables:
Business Unit
Origin
Control Group
Vendor
Voucher
Default values entered at the business unit level default to the transaction level, unless you
override the defaults with values stored at an intermediate level, such as voucher origin, control
group, or vendor. This hierarchy provides increased flexibility and control at the points where you
need them to fit your business needs. For example, instead of a payables user entering the same
default values over and over again on vouchers, the system uses the control hierarchy to enter the
predetermined values automatically. The user can override these values on the voucher.
4
Integration to other PeopleSoft Applications

PeopleSoft Payables interfaces with other PS financial and distribution applications including
General Ledger, Purchasing and Inventory.
eProcurement
Purchasing
Accounts Accounts
Payable Receivable
General Ledger
Integrating With PeopleSoft Purchasing

Payables interfaces directly with PeopleSoft Purchasing as follows:
The Copy PO/Recv (copy purchase order/receiver) functionality enables you to directly copy
purchase order and/or receiver information onto the voucher.
Voucher Build, the batch process that builds voucher record sets, can create vouchers records
from various sources in PeopleSoft Purchasing.
Voucher Build also builds voucher record sets for contracts, and is fully integrated with
PeopleSoft Purchasing.
Matching ensures that you are paying for what you ordered and received by comparing vouchers
with purchase orders and receiving documents.
The Document Status Inquiry functionality enables you to inquire and cross-reference related
documents across the procure-to-pay business cycle.
5
Integrating with General Ledger Applications

PeopleSoft Payables interfaces with PeopleSoft General Ledger by creating the accounting entries
that PeopleSoft General Ledger uses to create journal lines.
When you enter vouchers, you also enter information about how the voucher is charged, from an
accounting perspective. The posting of vouchers and payments creates balanced accounting
entries that are immediately available to the Journal Generator in the Payables Accounting Entry
table. You then run the Journal Generator COBOL process (FSPGJGEN) to create the journal
lines in PeopleSoft General Ledger.
PeopleSoft Payables automatically creates reversing accounting entries if you need to change any
information that has already been processed to the general ledger.
Accounts Payable Field Definitions Within PeopleSoft

The PeopleSoft Accounts Payable module maintains large amounts of information about the
disbursement cycle. Below is a list of the key fields used by PeopleSoft and an explanation of
each of them.
Field Definition
As of Date The last date for which a report or process includes data.
Business Unit An identification code that represents a high-level organization of
business information. You can use a business unit to define
regional or departmental units within a larger organization.
Description Free form text up to 30 characters.
Effective Date Date on which a table row becomes effective; the date that an
action begins. For example, if you want to close out a ledger on
June 30, the effective date for the ledger closing would be July 1.
This date also determines when you can view and change the
information. Pages or panels and batch processes that use the
information use the current row.
Gross Amount The full amount of the voucher, including merchandise and
service amounts (entered on the voucher line), freight, sales tax,
and inclusive VAT.
Invoice ID Typically, this is the invoice number or some other control number
from the voucher's supporting document. The system uses this
number as a reference for duplicate invoice checking if you have
selected it as one of your match criteria.
Invoice Date The vendor's invoice date.
Location A vendor location is not a physical address. It is a default set of
rules, or attributes, which define how you conduct business with a
particular vendor. A vendor's location comprises information such
as procurement options (including payment terms, currency
information, shipping method), VAT options, payment options,
withholding options, pay to bank accounts, and so on.
6
Field Definition
Process Frequency Designates the appropriate processing frequency:
Once: Executes the request the next time the batch process runs.
After the batch process runs, the process frequency is
automatically set to Don't Run.
Always: Executes the request every time the batch process runs.
Don't Run: Ignores the request when the batch process runs.
Report ID The report identifier.

Report Manager This button takes you to the Report List page, where you can view
report content, check the status of a report, and see content detail
messages (which show you a description of the report and the
distribution list).
Payment Count For each voucher you can have multiple payments. For example,
let's say you have one voucher for USD 1000.00 and you split the
payments into USD 600.00 and USD 400.00. The USD 600.00
would have a payment count of 1 and the USD 400.00 would have
a payment count of 2. Also, if the payment is cancelled and
reissued, the system assigns a payment count of 3, and so on.
Process Monitor This button takes you to the Process List page, where you can
view the status of submitted process requests.
Run This button takes you to the Process Scheduler request page,
where you can specify the location where a process or job runs
and the process output format.
Run Control ID An identification code that identifies the run parameters for a
report or process.
User ID The system identifier for the individual who generates a
transaction.
SetID An identification code that represents a set of control table
information or TableSets. A TableSet is a group of tables (records)
necessary to define your company's structure and processing
options.
Short Description Free form text up to 15 characters.
Status Indicates whether a row in a table is Active or Inactive. You
cannot display inactive rows on transaction pages or use them for
running batch processes. Inactivate rather than delete data you no
longer use in order to maintain an audit trail.
User ID The system identifier for the individual who generates a
transaction.
Vendor ID The system-assigned or user-defined identification number given
to a vendor when it is created.
Voucher ID The system-assigned or user-defined identification number given
to a voucher when it is created.

Terminology, Assumptions and Conventions

Following are some terminology, assumptions and conventions used in this manual.
Terminology
Checks and Warrants. Checks and Warrants are different financial instruments, however. For
the purposed of this manual and PeopleSoft voucher and payment processing, they may be used
interchangeable.
Vendor Short Name = vendor sort name. The PeopleSoft “vendor short name” is equivalent to
“vendor sort name” the current SDUSD accounts Payable application.
Assumptions
Budget Checking. Budget Check is a batch process that will run twice a day. It will be
scheduled to run automatically first thing in the morning to check the vouchers entered the night
before. It will be run manually in the afternoon by AP lead to check all vouchers available at that
time.
Posting Vouchers to the General Ledger. When you post a voucher (or payment) in PeopleSoft,
this means posting the transaction to the general ledger. For regular voucher posting, PeopleSoft
creates a balanced accounting entry recording the expense and liability associated the invoice
entered.
The Voucher Posting process will run twice a day. The first run will occur at the beginning of the
day as a batch process. The second will be a manual process done in the afternoon by either the
AP Lead or the AP Supervisor. While individual control groups can be posted, SDCS will
generally post all control groups.
Conventions
Invoice Date. During invoice entry the invoice date that is entered into PeopleSoft should always
be the date appearing on the vendor’s invoice. It no invoice date exits, then, the current date can
be used as an alternative.
Letter “t” in Date Field. PeopleSoft will interpret the letter “t” or “T” in date fields as today’s
date and replace it with the current date on a save or refresh operation.
Control Groups. SDUSD Control Groups will typically be comprised of 50 vouchers; however,
for the exercises in this manual, smaller control groups will be established.
Invoice Numbers. Unique invoice numbers are checked by PeopleSoft as part of its duplicate
payment validation. For the exercises in this manual, please use your own three initials followed
by a sequential three digit number in all invoice number fields. In the exercises, replace the XXX
with your three initials.
8
For example John J. Doe would number his invoices in exercise as follows:
Invoice Number
First invoice JJD001
Second Invoice JJD002
Entering Control Groups

Control groups offer a method of entering vouchers in a batch format. It provides a level of
control where you can set up default values to be applied to groups of vouchers. Control Groups
can also be used as a means of distributing the voucher entry work load and validating the
accuracy of data entry.
SDUSD’s approach to voucher entry will be with the use of control groups. AP Tech’s will enter
vouchers into PeopleSoft in batches or groups that have previously have been totaled by another
co-worker. At the completion of voucher entry, PeopleSoft will validate that the total of vouchers
entered against the batch total previously entered.
Control Groups must be entered by a different Tech than the person that enters the corresponding
vouchers. All AP Techs will have authority to enter and assign Control Groups.
Control Groups will be used for internal audit purposes. They will replace the existing business
process of complete audits of two Techs after running the pay cycle.
AP Techs will only be allowed to enter vouchers assigned to Control Groups.
{ Steps for Entering a Control Group
1. Receive vendor invoices and distribute to AP Techs - (Performed by Accounting Clerk)
2. Select invoices, place in alphabetic order, and pass to another AP Tech - (Performed by AP
Tech)
3. Run a tape to sum and count the invoices - (Performed by AP Tech)
4. Create control group for invoices and assign to AP Tech - (Performed by AP Tech)
5. Complete Control Group Cover Sheet - (Performed by AP Tech)
6. Return invoices to AP Tech 1 for data entry - (Performed by AP Tech)
9
Demonstration – Enter Control Groups
Step 1
Navigation: Non-System Task
The Accounting Clerk receives the invoices and distributes them to the appropriate AP Techs.
Step 2
Upon receipt of invoices from the Accounting Clerk, each AP Tech selects a group invoices (no
more than 50), alphabetizes them and passes them to a second AP Tech. The second AP Tech
creates the control group to provide appropriate segregation of duties.
The maximum number of invoices per group will be (50) fifty. However, smaller groups may
result as invoices will not intentionally be held to meet a minimum number for a control group.
Step 3
Each group of invoices is summed and counted to provide totals for the control group. This tape
will be used for the creation and final verification of the control group to ensure it is in balance
with the associated invoices.
Step 4
Navigation: Accounts Payable Æ Control Groups Æ Group Information
AP Techs will create a new group and enter the count and total from the tape they created. They
need to set up the control group and assign it to another AP Tech for data entry.

Step 6
Upon assignment of the control group, the second AP Tech returns the invoices and tape to the
first AP Tech for data entry.
Entering Vouchers
PeopleSoft Vouchers are the electronic equivalent of vendor invoices. They are the means of
paying for goods and services that can be initiated in any of the following ways:
SDCS District Purchase Order

Contract
Board Resolution
Board Line Item
This process flow covers the entire voucher lifecycle- including entering the voucher, verifying
control groups, budget checking, and posting.
The Budget Checking process will reduce expense site funds and reduce encumbrance balance in
real time; however, it does not affect the actual general ledger. Budget Checking will primarily
be done by a batch process run automatically two per day. It can, however, be done manually
when required.
Posting from Accounts Payable to the General Ledger (debiting expense, crediting liability) will
affect the general ledger accounts balances. Posting to the general ledger will be done in
summary by a batch process run automatically in the evenings. Budget checking must be done
prior to posting.
Deferred Processing
The Voucher component in PeopleSoft Payables utilizes deferred processing in order to speed up
the data-entry process. This means that the system does not validate the data for each field as you
Tab through a page. You can enter in all the data for your page without unnecessary trips to the
server for data validation. Entered data is validated when:
You navigate to another page in the component

Click the Save button
Click the Refresh button (access key: Alt+0)
If there are any errors in your data, you are notified at this time.
Voucher Styles
PeopleSoft contains several Voucher Styles which serve different purposes within accounts
payable processing. The three types of vouchers in use at SDCS are:
Regular Voucher—standard vouchers (this is the default setting) - used to enter PO vouchers and
vouchers that require matching to purchase orders and receiving documents.
15
Adjustment Voucher—used to adjust existing vouchers or to relate two vouchers to each other.
Journal Voucher—used to adjust accounting entries for vouchers that have been posted and paid,
and whose payments have also been posted.
Voucher Entry
The search page that appears when you enter the voucher component enables you to add a new
voucher, or search for an existing one. If you are adding a new voucher, you can use the fields on
this page to pre-populate the new voucher and thus reduce the amount of prompting and editing
you need to do on the new voucher.
If you are searching for an existing voucher, go to the Find an Existing Value tab where you can
search for vouchers by voucher ID, invoice number, vendor short name, vendor ID, vendor name,
or voucher style.
(Use caution when copying information from one voucher to another to pre-populate fields.
Although time saving, you must verify that all information copied from the source document is
correct for the new voucher.)
Validation When Voucher is Saved

When you save vouchers, many edits and processes occur automatically. Any problems that
PeopleSoft Payables detects with a voucher are brought to your attention so that you can fix them
immediately.
The system performs a series of validation checks to ensure that you have completed all the fields
correctly. Some of the validations that occur are:
Duplicate invoice checking.
Verifying the existence of a vendor ID.
Verifying the existence of an invoice date and invoice ID.
Balancing header amounts against voucher line amounts for transaction amount.
Balancing voucher line amounts against distribution line amounts for transaction amount.
Ensuring that the user ID approving the voucher is the same as the user logged on.
Validating accounting distribution field values and combinations and error processing.
Where appropriate, validating the calculation and proration of non-merchandise charges such as
Sales and Use Tax, VAT, freight and miscellaneous charges.
Processing steps that occur when you save a voucher include:
Assigning a voucher ID for auto-numbered vouchers.
16
Determining whether the status of the control group should be updated.
Calculating and prorating the discount amount, if any.
Prorating sales tax, use tax, and freight as applicable.
Determining payment net and discount due dates.
Determining the scheduled payment date.
Creating a payment record.
Performing withholding processing, as applicable.
Checking the voucher match override status for purchase order and voucher contracts. If the
match status is set to E (error), the system deletes any entries from the Match Override table.
Non-Purchase Order Vouchers

Enter a Non-PO Voucher from source documents, such as (direct pay items, consultant forms,
RFC/Athletic claims, employee expenses, etc.). Since PeopleSoft vouchers are the electronic
equivalent of vendor invoices, they are the means of paying for goods and services.

Employee Expenses
Until the Expense module is purchased and installed, SDUSD will use the Open Item accounting
functionality of Accounts Payable and General Ledger to account for employee travel and
conferences. Open Item accounting will be used for advance payments for airline travel, hotels,
and conference enrollments.
Using Open Item accounting is a temporary solution to employee expenses, as the Expense
module will be installed at a later date.
Checks will not be cut to employees, but to vendors.
Receipts for Open Items will be entered through Journal Vouchers to move the expense to the
correct Chartfield string rather than a Regular entry, which would result in a zero dollar warrant.
The form which will be required to authorize an advance payment for airline travel, hotels, and
conference enrollments will be the “Business & Travel Expense reimbursement Claim” form.
Warrants processed from employee expense transactions will be sent directly to the vendor.
An Open Item record is created for each employee who is traveling. Employee Expense
accounting procedures require that open employee expenses are followed up to ensure all receipts
are turned in and accounted for properly.
Reviewing the expense status online allows the Accounts Payable Department to determine which
employees still have receipts to turn in and what amounts are still outstanding.

Adjustment Vouchers
Once you post a voucher to the general ledger, you can make only limited changes to it through
the Regular Voucher entry process. Essentially you can only add a comment to the voucher; that
does not impact the numbers on the voucher.
Adjustment vouchers adjust the original dollar amount for any events that have occurred since the
original was created and posted to the general ledger. They do not, however, change the
distribution from the original voucher; this is done through the use of a journal voucher.
Adjustment vouchers are typically used for credit memos, debit memos, or for relating one
voucher to another.
Examples of Adjustment Vouchers
Let's say you ordered food for your company meeting but did not receive all that you ordered.
You can make an adjustment for the missing items using an adjustment voucher.
If you are being billed in two parts for a major purchase, and you need to tie the two invoices
together, enter the second invoice as an adjustment.
You can also use Adjustment vouchers to enter credit adjustment vouchers that reference
purchase orders. If you received a credit from vendors that is not reflected on Return to Vendor
credits, you can use Adjustment vouchers to capture these credits.
y You can enter adjustment information manually, or you can copy the voucher that you want to
adjust right into the Adjustment voucher.
0 To change the numbers on a posted voucher, you must first unpost the voucher (unposting a
voucher will be limited to AP Lead or Supervisor and only if errors were made entering the initial
voucher). This action puts the voucher back into a postable state by reversing the accounting
entries made when it was posted, thus making it as if it had never been posted. You can then
change the necessary fields within the voucher.
Adjustment Vouchers are created by selecting the Voucher Style—Adjustments on the Voucher
search page. Then after entering the Voucher ID of the voucher you want to reverse in the
Voucher ID field you click the Copy to Voucher button to copy the entire voucher. (As with
regular vouchers, you can copy individual voucher lines by clicking the Copy from Worksheet
link.)
(Optional) If you are adjusting a voucher that references a purchase order, you can update the
prior quantity and amount matched against the purchase order by selecting the Reverse Qty/Amt
field on the Voucher Lookup Criteria page. You can also have the Budget Processor
restore/liquidate the encumbrance budget by selecting the Adjust Matched Values on the Voucher
Lookup Criteria page.
55
Line items are entered as positive (debit memo) or negative (credit memo) adjustment lines. A
positive amount will increase the voucher and a negative amount will decrease it.
The system populates the Related Voucher field on the Invoice Line with a voucher ID to link
voucher lines to the vouchers you are adjusting. The Related ID field is a reference field for
tracking your adjustments; it is for informational purposes only. By entering the original invoice
number from the first voucher, the debit/credit memo will reference the vendor’s original invoice.
You can access additional information for your adjustments on the remaining pages in the
Voucher component. These pages are the same as those for regular voucher entry.
{ Steps for Entering Adjustment Vouchers:

Withholding
Independent contractors (1099 contractors) may be subject to both State of California and federal
government withholding rules.
These requirements will be set up within the Vendor records established for these contractors,
however, it will be the responsibility of the AP clerks to verify that withholding is being
performed within PeopleSoft.

Match/Approve Vouchers
Overview of Three Way Matching

Three way matching refers to the process of comparing price and quantity values found in three
different business documents; Voucher, Purchase Order and Receiver prior to approving a
voucher for payment. This process provides assurance that the products listed on a vendor
invoice were requested and received at the appropriate price and in the appropriate quantity.
The components of three way matching are:
1. Goods are ordered via purchasing or eProcurement function. The requisition identifies the
price and quantity of the goods ordered. This information is transferred onto the purchase order
from the requisition.
2. When the goods are shipped to SDCS, the quantity received is entered into PeopleSoft by the
receivers.
3. When the invoice is received a voucher is created and matched to the purchase order and
receiving documents.
Specifying Voucher Tolerances

As part of the matching process, tolerances are set up which dictate what variances (or tolerances)
are acceptable and can be passed through by the accounts payable system.
Specific tolerances include:
Monetary Tolerances—Specify the Lower Amt (lower amount) and/or Upper Amt (upper
amount) for the tolerance.
Percentage Tolerances—Specify the Lower % and/or Upper %.
Minimum Amount—Minimum Amount (minimum amount) for the tolerance.
SDCS vouchers associated with contracts will have a tolerance of zero set up within the
matching, meaning the numeric values will have to match exactly in order for the voucher to
successfully pass the matching process. Special Request purchases will be the only transactions
with tolerances greater than zero associated with them.
If a match exception condition exists on the voucher, the system will automatically overrides the
match exception if falls within the acceptable limits established within the match exception rules.

The Matching Process

Prior to posting and paying PO Vouchers, the Matching process must be run. This process
matches POs, Receivers, and Vouchers in PeopleSoft according to match rules and tolerances set
up in advance. As all PO vouchers will be received upon, three way matching will be used for all
matching.
The matching process will run automatically each day. However, there are occasions when it will
be necessary to run matching manually, such as Express Payments. Also, match errors will need
to be investigated, corrected, and run manually. This document provides the steps to run the
Matching process manually, investigate matching errors, and correct them.
{ Steps for Matching Vouchers
Run Matching Process - (Performed by AP Lead or Supervisor)
Review Match Results - (Performed by AP Lead or Supervisor)
Correct Match Errors - (Performed by AP Lead or Supervisor)

Demonstration—Matching
For this example, we have one voucher with match exceptions from Apple Computer, Inc
APPLE-001, vendor ID 0000000029. The invoice number is APP092, the voucher ID is
00000005 and the invoice date is 8/6/03.
The voucher has two exceptions; the first that the terms were changed when the voucher was
entered and do not match the terms on the PO and the Voucher line invoiced total quantity is not
equal to the sum of all receiver accepted quantities that are associated with this voucher line.
Step 1
Completed Purchase Order Vouchers are required in order to run matching. This process can not
be run with Non Purchase Order Vouchers.
70
Step 2
After running the matching process, review the results to verify all the vouchers matched
successfully. Vouchers with errors need to identified and researched to determine the source of
the error.

during each day. However, this batch process can be run in an on-demand basis.
In our example we have a voucher which will fail budget check because there is no budget
assigned to the department number being used, so it fails budget check. The voucher is 00000007,
the vendor is Office Depot, vendor ID 000000006 and the amount of the voucher is $800.00. The

Budget Exception – Error Correction

Budget exceptions arise when the commitment control process cannot create an expense against
the Chartfield values on a voucher. There are several possible reasons for this. The most likely
reasons are:
No Budget Exists – the Chartfields reference a budget that has not yet been established.
Insufficient Funds – the Chartfields reference a budget that does not have enough available
spending authority to create the pre-encumbrance.
Some exceptions will require the requester to make the necessary corrections on the requisition
while other exceptions will require the attention of a Budget Analyst.
{ There are two steps for Budget Exception – Error Correction:
1 – Review the budget checking error - (Performed by AP Lead or Supervisor)
2 – Edit voucher data to correct the exception - (Performed by AP Lead or Supervisor)
Demonstration – Budget Exception Correction
Step 1
Commitment Control Æ Review Budget Check Exceptions Æ Voucher
After the Budget Check process has completed, review and correct the vouchers with budget
exceptions. This process will fail for vouchers with invalid chartfield strings or Chartfield strings
with insufficient budget for the voucher. In that event, the chartfields must be corrected, the
budget adjusted, the voucher cancelled, or the voucher overridden. If the status is valid, no work
is required.
Review all distributions on the Voucher for budget errors.

After the voucher’s budget checking error has been researched, the error needs to be corrected.
Budget errors resulting from invalid account codes will be more prevalent on Non-PO Vouchers
due to the manual entry of the chartfield string.
For the Voucher’s budget status to be valid, each distribution must be valid. Therefore, it is
important to verify each distribution line of the Voucher.
If the exception cannot be resolved after review by the AP Lead/AP Supervisor, the Budget
Analyst should be contacted.

Within PeopleSoft, Pay Cycles are established to pay groups of vouchers that share certain
characteristics. They will be set up by the Accounts Payable Lead or Supervisor.
Once set up, it can be used over and over again, with the same criteria to select payments, simply
by updating the date selection information. When the Pay Cycle is run, individual voucher
attributes are used to determine whether a voucher within the cycle will be selected for payment
or by passed for the cycle.
y A Pay Cycle acts as a payment selection criteria template.
For example, you might want to create two types of pay cycles: one for regular vendors, the other
for employees set up as vendors. In this case, you could set up a separate pay cycle for the two
types of vendors—regular vendors and employees. PeopleSoft Payables will create payments for
only vendors specified in the pay cycle. You can also select payments based on bank information,
vendor pay groups, or payment method.
The Pay Cycles used at SDCS will already have been set up. The information that we enter into
PeopleSoft relating to our customer invoices will be critical in determining when, how, or if each
invoice gets paid.
Express Checks
Express Payments are used for special or urgent payments. They are run outside of the normal
pay cycles for specific Vouchers or Vendors on an as needed basis. The conditions necessary for
the use of express check are as follows:
The voucher is identified for Express Pay
The Pay Cycle Pay Cycle Manager and Express Check functions are restricted to Accounts

Cancel/Stop Warrants
A payment can be cancelled if the warrant has not been mailed or delivered to the vendor. Once
the payment has already left the premises, the payment must be stopped.
0 The Stop Process also involves contacting the bank to ensure the payment is correctly
handled.
Additionally, within this process we must determine if the payment will be re-scheduled or
not.
District Accounts Payable and Food Services Accounting Accounts Payable may be handled
differently. Contact the Accounts Payable Lead or Supervisor if you have any questions.

4 – Reschedule payment - (Performed by AP Lead or Supervisor)
Demonstration – Entering a Payment Cancellation
Step 1 – Determine need to void/stop payment

The determination that a payment should be stopped can come from several sources. For
example, the vendor may request a payment is stopped when it realizes the warrant has been lost.
Or, in the discovery of a fraudulent claim, the payment should be stopped.
Step 2 – Cancel/stop payment

Navigation: Accounts Payable Æ Payments Æ Cancel/Void Payments Æ Payment Cancellation
Once it has been identified, we must determine whether the payment needs to be voided or
stopped. Voids are used for payments that have not been mailed or delivered to the vendor.
105
Stop Payment is used if the payment has been mailed or delivered. If so, you must contact the
bank or the County of San Diego first to see if the check or warrant has been cashed.
If it has not, you may proceed with the cancel/stop.
If it has, order a copy of the front and back to show the vendor.

Voucher Inquiry
PeopleSoft Payables provides inquiry pages and reports that enable you to access your voucher
information quickly and easily. The voucher inquiry page can be used to look up information
when a customer calls and wants you to research information for them about an invoice or
payment.
Using Customer Information to Access Vouchers and Payment Data

What if a vendor calls looking for an outstanding invoice? The vendor won't have any of the
information that has become part of the voucher (such as Voucher ID), but only raw data as it
appears on their invoice. How do you find the information they are requesting? In this instance,
you would:
Use the Voucher Inquiry page to search for vouchers by vendor and vendor invoice number.
Drill down to the Vendor Schedule Payment Inquiry page to view the scheduled payment details
for the vouchers (such as payment method, scheduled pay date, and approval status).
Drill down to the Voucher Inquiry Lines page to view invoice and distribution line level detail for
the vouchers (such as General Ledger business unit, Chartfields, and line amounts).
Drill down to the Voucher Payment Detail page to access detail on the payment itself (such as
bank, payment date, payment amount and currency).
Drill down to the Payment Inquiry page to see a listing of transactions that were included as part
of the payment (such as transaction number, date, paid amount and currency).

Chapter 4—Support
PeopleSoft PeopleBooks
The PeopleBooks is online documentation delivered with the business applications purchased
from PeopleSoft. It is a research tool that will give you generic information about how to setup,
operate and maintain the PeopleSoft applications.
PeopleBooks will not give you SDCS specific information such as what value to use for a given
field. Rather, it will explain to you the purpose of a page and the explanation of the field.
You can access PeopleBooks by clicking the Help link from any page in the PeopleSoft Portal. It
is located under the navigation header.
The Help Desk

The goal of the San Diego City Schools Help Desk is to provide customers with a single point of
contact for computer hardware, software, and district application problem reporting. The Help
Desk will solve, document and or relay problems to appropriate support personnel to provide an
efficient and effective resolution.
To enhance our support process, we request that all school sites designate a contact person to
call the Help Desk to report problems affecting either individual workstations or the entire site.
By having a single site designee call in, it helps keep the phone lines open when an outage affects
multiple users at one site. Site Technicians perform this function at secondary schools.
Please note that the Help Desk greeting (619) 725-7500 will be changed daily to reflect system
outages and status updates throughout the outage. You should also try to re-establish connections
with systems that are experiencing outages at regular intervals.
The Help Desk also provides assistance for NON-EMERGENCY issues via a web request form
located at http://www.sandi.net/hdemail/. This provides a standard format for submitting your
request for a problem ticket. Help Desk tickets will no longer be issued from an email request.
Please take the time to review your entries to the web page prior to submitting your request.
