I know that the whole receipts thread is dead and gone, but I have
one last plea before the semester is over: please mark receipts as
"paid" if they are paid at the tournament. Carnegie Mellon's accounting
office has returned two receipts that were otherwise in perfect order --
completely itemized, contact information, the whole nine -- but did
not have the word "PAID" on them. My bank takes about a month to
return a small-scale image of a cancelled check, and I'd much rather be
reimbursed sooner than later. In both cases, I had to obtain e-mail
verification from tournament staff sent to our accounting person,
which is tedious work for all parties involved.
Overall, receipts that we receive from tournaments have been very
good, and the thread concerning them certainly helped out. Hopefully,
Carnegie Mellon is in the minority as far as anal-retentiveness goes.
