Purchase Guidelines

Direct Deposit

All vendors are encouraged to be set up for direct deposit. Payments will then be sent directly to their bank account by electronic transfer/ACH. When the payment is released, the funds are available in their account the next morning rather than all the time it takes to reach them by mail and then for them to actually deposit it in their account. Vendors can complete the direct deposit information on our Substitute W9 Form.

Texas A&M employees are also encouraged to have their purchase and travel reimbursements paid via direct deposit. Direct deposit information set up for their payroll is not automatically transferred to the accounting system's vendor record unless that employee has a vendor record in the accounting system and requests it through Workday.
