What is an authorized signature?

Every department has a designated person who, for auditing purposes, receives an email notification whenever expenditures are entered against that department's chart-strings.  In this case, the 'department' is the L4 (level 4) department.  This level of audit allows the authorized signature person to intercept and cancel unwanted or un-approved service requests.  Email notifications include: new Service Requests for Add/Change/Move/Disconnect, service ownership changes and funding changes.

To modify the authorized signature for your department, send email to istbill@berkeley.edu.
