Replenishing the Lab Bank Account
Whenever the balance for the lab's bank account dips below $2,500 a
replenishment is needed. To do that, complete the following
steps.
Follow this file path: ThePub > UW > LabInfo >
Financial > HumanSubjects.
Once in the HumanSubjects file, create a new file with the name
ReplenishYEAR_MMDD-R#
(eg. Replenish2007_0615-R12).
- The number following the R should
indicate the number of replenishments done so far (including this one).
By looking at
the previous replenishment folders in the HumanSubjects folder, you
should be able to tell
which number should follow the R in this folder's name.
Now open Quicken, and add in all remaining human subjects
payment form entries.
Click on report, and select register report from the drop-down menu.
Click on dates, and select custom dates from the drop-down menu.
Enter the date of the first register etnry following the last
replenishment and today's date. (These dates should encompass every
entry that has yet to be replenished).
Click on export data, and select to excel compatible format from the
drop-down menu.
You will name the file R# (eg. R12), and then click open.
Open the file you just created in Excel. If a pop-up window
appears, click next, next and then finished.
Delete or change the following information:
- Delete the rows and colums that have no information at all
within them.
- Delete any rows showing voided checks or deposits.
- Delete the rows that show balances, total inflows, total
outflows, totals, and net totals.
- Delete the account name, memo, and
clear columns.
- Change the label for the column labeled category
to Sub ID.
- Hide the column with participant's names.
- Do this by selecting that column, clicking on format,
then columns, and hide.
- Change every $ amount to a positive number, do this by
multiplying every number in that column by -1
- Do this by (in another column) typing =( then click on the first negative value, then type *-1) and hit enter
- Then click on the non-negative number in the new column, click on the box in the lower-right corner of that cell
- Pull the box down until all of the negative numbers are now positive in this column
- Now, copy that new column and click paste special in another column (paste values only).
- Change all of the amounts to dollar amounts by selecting
all the
cells under the amount heading, and clicking on format.
Select
cells from the drop-down menu, and then number and currency from the
pop-up box.
- If any check amount is equal to or over $100, then put the
participant's name, social security number and address in columns next
to that participant's row.
- Create a total line below all of the dollar amount entries.
- Use the sum function to add up all of the dollar amounts,
and place a total label next to the sum.
- This total plus the balance in Quicken should add up to
$5,000.
- If it doesn't contact John.

Save this report in the replenish folder that you created earlier, and
print off 2 copies of the report. Note: if you change the page
set up to landscape, the file will print off better.
When closing Quicken, you will be asked if you want to save
the
report. This report does not need to be saved, only the Excel
files need to be saved.
Go to the psychology department's website, and click on internal.

Use this

as a reference.
Save the accounting form within the Replenish folder that you created earlier, and print off 2 copies of it.
The excel spreadsheet should be stapled to the accounting form, and you
will need to get John's signature on the accounting form. This
set will be given to the department's business manager, and after that
person signs it, they will pass it off to be processed elsewhere.
Keep the extra copy for your own records.
