Prepay/Advanced Billing/Credit Accounts

• For internal users:

  are ALLOWABLE if the source of funding is NOT restricted; e.g., overhead, residual, foundation, etc. Users will be able to bill against the amount transferred on a fiscal year basis. Any remaining balance will be returned to the user at the end of the fiscal year (June). Once funds have been transferred to I2AT, a special account will be set up to track the funds. Monthly statements will be provided.

  are NOT ALLOWABLE if the source of funding is restricted; e.g., grants and contracts. MSU/I2AT is prohibited by federal guidelines (OMB A-21, A-110) to set up credit accounts using restricted funds. We are required to invoice for actual scans. All charges must be incurred during the period of performance of the project; therefore, services must be provided during the period of performance. This is to ensure that expenditures for sponsored agreements are proper and in accordance with the agreement documents and approved project budgets.

• For external users:

  For credit accounts, non-federal funds can be sent to I2AT. An account will be set up to track the funds and monthly statements will be provided. Any remaining balance will be returned to the user at the end of the fiscal year (June).
