- When the “credit” amount starts running low (<$300), a deposit of $1,000 needs to be sent to LCCDS.
- Make 2 photocopies of the most recent statement.
- On the original:
- Fill in the amount being deposited at the bottom of the statement in the space marked “Amount enclosed.”
- Make a note of the date that the deposit was processed in Unicorn (i.e., “Deposit paid 2/13/03”) and initial.
- File with the statements in the LCCDS folder (serials).
- The second copy is an attachment to AP:
- Fill in the amount being deposited at the bottom.
- Fold in thirds and mark the vendor number (241548) on the back.
- The third copy is for the audit (paper) file:
- Fill in the amount being deposited at the bottom and indicate that the deposit was paid on order 5920L01, the payment card for LCCDS.
- Process this copy as an invoice with an attachment, using the account number (594986) as the invoice number.

- In Unicorn, the invoice line number should be “1:DEPOSIT” and the parts field should say “Deposit” in the OTR. No packing slip number should be entered.
- Deposit transactions are non-taxable.
