This article is designed to walk you through the steps required to transfer funds from your club to the main A Cappella Club. Similar steps will be followed for all other payments.
If you want to make sure you have enough funds to make the transfer, you can ask the accountants in the BYUSA office – either in person (3400 WSC) or via email (sclaccounting@byu.edu).

2. Pick Your Club
Select your club that you want to transfer funds from.
3. Begin the Request
Scroll down and click the “Request New Expense” button.
4. Vendor Field

In this new field write “BYU A Cappella Club”.
6. Contact Info
Enter your name and contact information in the appropriate fields.
7. Write a Description
Write a detailed description in the “Description and Purpose” box. For example:
- “Familiar Ring’s portion of the CD costs for the 2022 BOBAC album.”
- “Contributions for maintenance of sound equipment due to use at our recent concert”
8. Enter the Amount
Enter the amount you want to transfer in the “Estimated Cost” field.
9. Submit the Request
Hit the "Submit Request" button.
