3. Payments to Foreign Nationals
Payments for services performed by individual outside of US:
Contact accounting prior to services being performed/contract being arranged!
Likely that we CANNOT make this kind of payment.
Payments for services performed in the U.S. by a foreign individual or corporation:
We CAN make these payments but will need time to gather correct information from the foreign national to determine the proper tax withholding/reporting method.

4. G/L Account Authorization Maintenance
Importance of keeping authorized users up to date on all accounts
Can only be maintained by custodian
Reminder that secretary/authorized user cannot approve payment to a custodian/supervisor
