Click Sign In Using Active Directory Account:

BA4 uses active directory so the first time a pop-up window may appear asking for user ID and password.  Before user ID type AD\ (example: AD\arsmit01).  The password is the same password that is used for ULINK or any other university system.  Click “remember my credentials” and then click OK.

In Menu, click on Forms>Journal Voucher.

In Actions click Add New:

Once the journal voucher is completed, click Submit for Processing:

This creates an Encumbrance in BA4.  The open encumbrance reflects on the monthly financial statement.  Business Operations Finance Team can then follow-up to ensure that the journal voucher is processed.  

Click Create Office JV Spreadsheet as shown below and the journal voucher will download in Excel:

Fill in the month, Originating Department = person's home department who is preparing the journal voucher, Prepared By/Date = The name of the person preparing the journal voucher and the date the form is completed, Approved Department = the home department of the approver, Approved By/Date = The name of the approver and the date the form is completed. 

The approver must be someone other than the person preparing the form.  Be sure to click,
"Verify Voucher" as shown above in red.
