Cash Deposit Meaning: In the world of finance, a cash deposit is defined as money that is injected into a checking, money market or savings account, either via money transfer, ATM machine or through a bank teller. In simple terms, a cash deposit is money placed in a financial institution for protective custody. Dec 17, 2020 You can deposit cash at many ATMs, but not all of them.

Submitting Desktop Procedures

To meet the requirement for submission and approval by Accounting and Financial Reporting of your unit’s cash handling procedures, you must attach your saved procedures through Workflow.

The local desktop cash handling procedures can be accessed at Cash Handling Procedures Form. Note the required cash handling roles and their responsibilities at Responsibilities.

After completing the form (MS Word file), save the document to your local network and upload to workflow via this workflow link or by logging in to Self Service – Business & Financial Systems – Financial Systems & Forms - Cash Handling Procedure Submission.

Once you are ready to submit your procedures for approval, select the “workflow link” above. This will take you to a Workflow Submission screen with additional instructions. You will attach your unit’s saved procedures document as instructed to a workflow transaction within the University of Iowa Workflow System. You may submit your procedures directly to Accounting and Financial Reporting for approval, unless your organizational unit or department has notified you of additional approvals required by them.

The initiator of the workflow transaction will receive an email notification from Accounting and Financial Reporting for either the approval or denial of procedures (referencing the workflow package #).
