The information on this page applies to reimbursements from UMBF or USMF when:
- Funds are requested from UMBF or USMF AND
- The request is payable to UMB AND
- The expense to be reimbursed is charged to a Quantum Financials GL account combination (SOAPF). (i.e. NOT to a sponsored project)
Introduction
UMBF and USMF are separate legal entities from UMB and each uses a separate financial system for processing transactions and financial reporting.
UMBF and USMF do not use Quantum Financials or Quantum Analytics.
Therefore, there are two separate steps to request a reimbursement payable to UMB:
- Record the transaction in UMB Quantum Financials AND
- Request the reimbursement from UMBF or USMF
Step 1: Record the transaction in UMB Quantum Financials
To do this, create a Customer Bill in Quantum Financials.
Reminders and tips:
- Select the UMBF or USMF site that corresponds to your Org/School number. Don’t see your Org/School site? Submit the CBS USMF/UMBF Customer Request Form.
- Select the correct Memo Line:
- UMBF memo lines use revenue object 0323
- USMF memo lines use revenue object 0322
Need a memo line? Submit the CBS USMF/UMBF Memo Line Request Form.
- Be sure to assign a Collector to the bill.
- The revenue will show in Quantum Analytics after the bill is fully processed. However, the department collector is responsible for reviewing the Collections Dashboard to ensure that the bill is paid by UMBF or USMF.
- UMB General Accounting will write off the Quantum bill if it is not paid within 60 days. This means that the revenue posted in Quantum Analytics will be removed from your SOAPF.

Step 2: Request payment from UMBF or USMF
To do this, submit a disbursements request form (DRF) to UMBF or USMF.
- A copy of the Quantum Customer Bill must be attached or submitted with the DRF.
