UPAY - Initiating an Honorarium Payment for US Citizens and US Permanent Residents

Power Users in the Travel Expense Management (TEM) system may issue honorarium payments. To issue an honorarium payment, verify that the recipient is in Banner, the correct address is available in Banner, and a W9 is on file. Then submit an expense report in TEM.

If the recipient is in Banner, follow these steps to check that the address is correct.

  1. Search for the recipient on the FTMVEND screen in Banner. You can use the vendor ID or the recipient’s name. See Searching for a Vendor Using FTMVENDS  job aid for help.
  2. Select the Vendor Types tab to see if a W-9 tax form is on file. The system will indicate W-9 Vendor Add Form on File if it is in the system.
  3. Verify the recipient’s address is correct.
  4. If the recipient is established as a vendor in Banner, a W9 is on file, and the correct address is available, submit an expense report in TEM using the Purpose: Misc.
    1. Payment – Vendors, Non-Employees, and Students. See the Miscellaneous or One-Time Vendor Payments job aid for help.
