Job Description:
Position Summary This position is responsible for the approval
of vouchers submitted through the Campus Voucher and Purchase Order
Voucher systems. This position is responsible for reading and
addressing all notes and comments attached to payment requests
(either by document or comments within the approval systems) and
corresponding with voucher creators to clarify special handling,
payment methods, or requests for expedited payment. The technician
must understand UNC policy and procedures for campus voucher
processing and be able to apply policies and procedures set by UNC
, NC, and Federal guidance when reviewing system documents. Of
utmost importance is the verification of vendor and vendor address
and/or account within the campus voucher system, as this position
is the last point of verification before funds leave the
University. This position is also responsible for processing wire
transfers required by the voucher systems. This position must
review spreadsheets that consolidate information from all sections
of the payment and vendor systems and identify differences between
the way the vendor was initially set up and the wire instructions
provided by campus. This position works closely with the Vendor
Team Supervisor and must be aware of and take into consideration
any foreign banking changes affecting accounts in countries
requiring additional information with the wire transfer or whether
the wire can be executed from Connect Carolina vs. manual
transmission. Other responsibilities include: examination of
documentation in the vendor system to evaluate whether tax
withholding and/or reporting requirements may apply to voucher
payments (i.e. US source income vs. foreign source income),
determining whether net payments to vendors are accurate, and
verification of proper flags for IRS Form 1042-S reporting
requirements in instances where the foreign vendor successfully
claims tax treaty benefits. Work Schedule M-F 8am – 5pm
