Helpful Hints:

The Helpful Hints section listed below is a sampling of the District’s policies and procedures as it relates to Accounts Payable.

Approvals

  • Travel claims will be processed in accordance to LTISD policies and guidelines. However, supervisors have the discretion to limit travel reimbursements in order to meet budgetary restrictions.
  • Prior approval for reimbursement of travel and supplies must be obtained before expenses are incurred.

Purchase Orders

  • Purchase orders must be received online and original invoices received in the Accounts Payable Department in order to process payments.
  • When registering for a workshop, conference or paying for a membership, a purchase order may be prepaid. A prepaid purchase order must include documentation for payment such as the conference registration.

Reimbursements

  • Sales tax will not be reimbursed when the total amount of the receipt is claimed.
  • When filing a claim for group business meals, list the number and names of attendees and purpose of meal. If the claim is for a staff meal, it is acceptable to just list “staff” and the number of attendees and purpose of the meal. 

Travel

  • State tax will not be reimbursed for a hotel stay. Remember to take a Texas Hotel Occupancy Tax Exempt form.
