In February 2018, the University of Windsor will implement a new software system called Oracle Cloud Financials. This new finance system is part of a campus-wide enterprise resource planning (ERP) implementation and will be vital in ensuring service excellence to all of the University’s key constituencies, including our valued supplier partners. We are leveraging this implementation as an opportunity to modernize the way we do business. As a result, this new system will change the way we order and process payments for goods and services. Our goals are to align our procedures with industry best practices and make our order/payment process more efficient. This includes adopting electronic fund transfer (EFT) as the University of Windsor’s preferred means of payment for our Canadian suppliers*.
There are several advantages for our Canadian suppliers of enrolling in our EFT program, including:
- it will eliminate handling/mailing delays associated with cheques
- it will further reduce the opportunity for payment misrouting, theft and forgery; and
- an automated detailed e-mail remittance advice will be sent to an e-mail account specified you confirming your payment.
To enroll please visit the Accounts Payable webpage and complete and submit our EFT Application Form.
Please send your completed form, together with a voided cheque or another form of confirmation from your bank to suppliers_uwinsite@uwindsor.ca.
Alternatively, you could mail your completed form and void cheque to the address below:
ATTN: UWinsite Finance Office

* Please note: EFT payment method is currently only available for Canadian suppliers being paid in Canadian dollars; Foreign supplier payments will continue to be processed by cheque.
