Welcome to the

RSPH Financial Approval System (R-FAS)

R-FAS is used to request authorized approval to expend RSPH funds. This system replaces the need for email approvals. This system does not replace the need to submit a Compass or Emory Express request.

HINTS & TIPS

Service Type:  Finance Approval Request

Attachments:                

·      Make your attachment(s) meaningful. Provide enough detail for your reviewer to make an informed decision.

o   Attach a copy of your draft Compass or Emory Express summary sheet.

o   No summary sheet? Attach a copy of the invoice or receipt.

o   Upload a spreadsheet if necessary (see multiple types of requests below).

·      More than three attachments? Upload a ZIP file.

IT-related Item

Check the IT Related Information box

·      if you made an IT-related purchase without IT’s prior approval.

Do not check the box

·      if you have previously received IT approval to make the purchase.

Speedtypes and (PI/Alternate Approver) Information

·      Non-RSPH speedtypes are not contained within the R-FAS system. E-mail approvals can be used for non-RSPH speedtypes.

·      If the PI is the same for multiple speedtypes, you only need to list the PI’s name once. 

EXAMPLE

Multiple lines or types of requests

Save time and effort.

·      Enter each type of request on a separate Speedtype line:
