 Either Manually scanned or electronically exported to
ImageNow
 Imaged document can be:

How will this impact me?
 Differences you may notice
 Processing time
 How you see information
 Quicker access to information
 We can track where a payment is at anytime throughout
the workflow process
 Ability to retrieve documentation immediately for
reference
11
Probable Process Changes
 Expected process changes
 Routing to Travel/AP first

After Department Approvals are done
 Fund approvals will be done electronically

(RCM/Treasury, Budget. Purchasing, Tax)
 No more multiple copies of Travel Authorizations
required!
 We will have the ability to “copy” as many of the TAs as
needed (if needed/still working on this process)
12
Possible Form Changes
 In order to efficiently use ImageNow Forms will most
likely change
 To allow for effective scanning
 To allow for proper electronic annotations
 Some changes will be minor
 Colors/text field
 Some changes will be complete revisions
 Travel forms
 DPR
 This means we need your help to use the most current
forms!
13
What does the future bring?
 Long-Term Goals
 Across Campus Access


Limited access to key department contacts first
Distributed access to some main department contacts to reduce the
need to call or email for status of payment
 Imaging some historical data
 For documents we retain perpetually
 In our Dreams!
 Once imaging becomes more common across UNCC


May look at the ability for select departments to scan into our
processing queue
May look at extending electronic approval process to include
department levels

How will I know?
 Email announcement sent through Admin-Chat
 Information will be sent through list-serve as changes
occur which might affect
 As new forms are posted will announce through
Admin-chat
 Post new forms on web
 Use web for most current forms!
