Research Account Creation Form
All VTH Storeroom and Pharmacy sales are now requested and fulfilled via the Inventory Management System (IMS). If you need a user account in the IMS please email his@vetmed.illinois.edu to request an account.
IMS FOAPAL Add/Changes: If you are ONLY in need of a FOP addition, no DBF, in the Inventory Management System (IMS) you can make that request here: IMS CFOP Addition Request
IMS SANDI Service Account: This is ONLY if the research account will need to be charged for a SERVICE, inventory, and supplies should all go through the IMS.
Note: It is very rare, but there are situations where a Research Account still needs to be created in SANDI. This will only happen when the research account will need to be charged for a service versus an inventory procedure code. An example is the need to charge imaging studies to the research account.
There is a line at the bottom of the VTH Research Account Creation form that asks the researcher if they will utilize non-inventory/supplies services in the hospital such as imaging? If they answer yes, please send a copy of the form to his@vetmed.illinos.edu and HIS will create the SANDI account.
Form Verbiage: Will you require a SANDI account to allow billing of non-inventory/supplies services in the hospital, such as imaging studies? (This is not common/typical)
