New Sponsored Projects Billing & Receivables System Being Developed

May 15, 2013 :: Shirely Ross, ISC

Development of a new sponsored projects billing and receivables system will begin July 1. This new system is targeted for release in early FY15 and will replace Penn's current Billing and Receivables Information Management (BRIM) system, which is used by the Office of Research Services to issue invoices and track receivables for sponsored projects. The new system will link PennERA with BEN Financials, and will streamline and improve several processes, including invoice creation and billing, reconciliation, and collections, and will provide the ability to track grants and funded projects from notice of award through final reporting. For more information, please contact Jeanine Kleba at Kleba@isc.upenn.edu. This project is jointly sponsored by the Provos'’s Office, Information Systems and Computing, the Office of Research Services, and the Division of Finance.
