BUY.IU does not accept decimal quantities, either on requisitions or invoices, per IU’s setup. This means that invoices received containing decimal quantities are converted to reflect a quantity of one and a total dollar amount. Let’s look at an example:
Your department establishes an order to compensate a translator for 10 hours of work at $20 per hour. The translator submits an invoice for 5.5 hours worth of work.
BUY.IU generates an invoice that reflects a quantity of 1 at $110.00 (5.5 hours of work multiplied by $20 per hour).
When these funds are disencumbered from the account they will be reduced by the amount paid, $110.00.
