Scan and Destroy Policy Update

Update on the scan and destroy policy in relation to Accounts Payable documents

Scan and Destroy Policy Update: Accounts Payable

We have been working on a scan and destroy policy in regard to Accounts Payable documents which include purchase invoices, payment vouchers and credit notes.

Before the policy is finally implemented an audit of the online document management system is being requested to ensure there are no remaining issues in relation to implementing this policy.

There still  remain a number of research funder e.g. EU which make it difficult to have a blanket policy that applies to all accounts payable documents and we are considering how best to deal with this.

If you have any comments about this or any suggestions to make in relation to these issues, please email Finance@ed.ac.uk.
