In an effort to support sustainability, Sonoma State University strongly encourages University employees to use electronic payments via EFT as it provides both sender and receiver with the advantages of improved controls and accelerated fund availability. It reduces the payment receipt time, reduces chances of check fraud, and promotes better cash management.
EFT is not an option for University Auxiliaries (Associated Students of Sonoma, Inc., Sonoma State Enterprises, Inc., and SSU Foundation).
In order to enable Accounts Payable to create the employee EFT account, employees must upload the two items below:
- Direct Deposit Authorization for Employee Reimbursement
- A letter from the employee's bank on bank letterhead confirming banking information or a copy of a voided check. Bank statements are not acceptable as they do not provide routing numbers necessary for EFT.
Sonoma State University, Auxiliaries (Associated Students of Sonoma, Inc., Sonoma State Enterprises, Inc., and SSU Foundation), and Associated Student Club payments, require all vendors to complete a Vendor Data Record 204 Form in order to do business. Then the vendor data record form is required to process payment by determining the tax status for reportable income and State and Federal withholding. Form substitutions are not accepted.
Some vendors may be required to provide additional documents such as W-8-BEN or W-8-BEN-E, or a Foreign National Data Collections Form. Instructions are provided on the Vendor Data Record Form if these additional forms are relevant.
Current vendors may be required to provide a current form or requested to provide a new form due to name changes.
In order to enable Accounts Payable to create vendor setup or maintenance, vendors must:
- Download form
- Complete all sections of the form
- Save form prior to uploading
- Upload saved form
Please do not email these documents. If difficulties are encountered when uploading, other submission options:
