Payment Systems – Accounts Payable

Accounts Payable processes nonpayroll payments to suppliers and employees in a timely and accurate manner through our policies and procedures.

Note: We are discontinuing paper check payments very soon. To avoid any disruption, your organization must be set up for EFT/ACH payments immediately.

Effective now, all purchase orders and future payments will be on hold until we receive your EFT/ACH setup information.

What We Do

  • Process payments for each school/workgroup (e.g., goods and services, construction and retainage)

Invoice Submission Process

  1. A purchase order is first created by the department at Dallas College.
  2. Suppliers submit invoice(s) to DCCCDAP@DallasCollege.edu with the PO number included.
  3. The invoice is processed and vouchered against the PO by the AP team.
  4. The invoice status moves from "In progress" to "Approved" as it progresses through the approval steps.
  5. The invoice is paid via the preferred payment method when it is due.
