How can I be sure that FIS documents initiated by me are approved by important deadlines?


It is the responsibility of those who initiate documents to ensure that their documents are approved by appropriate deadlines (e.g., month end or year end closing). This can be done by following the steps below:
  1. Logon to the FIS. From the Welcome screen, select the "Search for Documents button. This will bring up the Document Search window.
  2. Tab into the Initiator field, and enter your user id.
  3. Tab into the Status field, and enter the following information: (F2) !A (F2) !C (F2) !E.

    Note: (F2) denotes the F2 function key that must be selected before entering a wildcard, in this case the "!," which means "not".
  4. Select the Search button.

The results displayed are those documents still in the routing process. By displaying the routing log, you can determine who is currently holding each document in their inbox. They can then be notified by you of  any processing deadlines that must be met.
