Introduction
Request for Payment (RFP) forms are completed when a payment is due to an individual, vendor, company, firm, or other organization outside the University that has provided, or will be providing, a product or service to the University. If the payment is for services rendered or goods purchased in the past, the payment will reference the invoice(s) provided to the University from the issuing company. If the payment is for future services or goods, the Request for Payment will refer to applications or other forms associated with the purchase or service provided by the issuing company.
