Mail and Receiving

NEW POLICY: All outgoing mail must include a Departmental Outgoing Mail and Package Form to ensure charges are sent to the right worktags in Workday. We do not accept FOAP barcodes any longer.  You may request a new barcode with the appropriate worktags from the copy center to send with your outgoing mail.
