The following is an update and provides the latest information regarding wire transfers as the transition to our new banking partner, JP Morgan Chase, has increased the necessity to make wire transfer payments to suppliers and individuals.
Effective immediately, there are updates to the wire transfer instructions and wire transfer form. Three important instruction updates include:
- Invoices are now able to flow through the approval process into Prism.
- Users do NOT have to manually close Purchase Orders nor cancel invoices.
- Users must complete the updated wire request form for all wire transfers.
Additional reminders:
- ALL requests for wire transfers are to be emailed to paymentprocessingwires@cfo.pitt.edu.
- ALL payments to vendors with foreign addresses must be made via wire transfer. Review the instructions and form in the section above.
- If you are paying a foreign individual for payments such as honorariums, per diems, awards, or any type of reimbursements, you will initiate your payment request via Concur.
- If you are paying a foreign vendor or individual sole proprietor for goods or services, you will initiate your payment request via the PantherExpress System.
- If you do not have access to either of these systems, please contact Customer Service for assistance in gaining access to the appropriate system to process your request. If you are unable to gain access, Payment Processing will accept requests via “paper,”. Review the instructions in the link above for a full list of necessary documentation.
