16. NOTE: The ability to add attachments to P-Card reconciliations gives everyone the opportunity to reduce paperwork that they keep in their files. Please familiarize yourself with scanning on your department’s Ricoh copier and start attaching your receipts and backup documents to your reconciled transactions. In the near future, this will be required of all reconcilers who have access to Ricoh machines. Document scanning has never been easier! If you aren’t already using your Ricoh copier to scan and store files for yourself and your department, you’re missing a great opportunity to save paper, file space, and costs to the Institute. There are NO click charges for scans made on your Ricoh. If you aren’t sure how to use your Ricoh’s scanning capabilities, go to Procurement Services’ web site to access a tutorial that will show you how. Any questions specifically related to scanning should be directed to extension 4242, or email MBI.Procurement@moody.edu.
