What is an invoice?

An invoice is a vendor-supplied billing document that details a purchase.

Characteristics of acceptable invoices:

• Billed to Kent State University
• Invoice number (preferred)
• Invoice date
• Itemization of items/services purchased (what are we paying for and what is the per item cost)
• Invoice total (must match total on payment request; KSU does not shortpay or overpay invoices)
• Remittance information (must have vendor's name and remittance address)
