Changing Accounts Prior to Reconciling and Certifying in HOD The following instructions describe how to change the account number associated with your PCard transactions in the NYS Procurement Card AEPC application via Host on Demand (HOD). 1. Sign on as usual (Tip: Make sure you are in the correct billing cycle, for example: 1011 for the October statement). 2. Tab to VI03 Log List, hit enter. 3. Tab to transaction that is to be changed. 4. Type an X on the green line next to the transaction affected, hit enter. 5. You will now be on the transaction screen. 6. Tab down to account information in the lower part of your screen to the amount column. 7. Overtype the dollar amount in the column with a 0, delete any remaining numbers. 8. Tab down to the next line (it will be blank). 9. Type the new account number, NBR (sub account), FY (fiscal year), and the amount. Copy all information down from the upper line except for the account number. 10. At the F in the lower right corner, type S to Save. 11. At the A in the lower right corner, type R to go back to the log list and select another transaction or E to go back to the main menu. You can process changes at any time during the month once the transaction appears on the VI03 log list. You must do this before you do your final certification. If changes are needed after the certification is complete, then you will need to process an Interdepartmental Invoice (IDI) to transfer the expenditure to a different account. The status of the account could affect this process. If processing several changes, it may be easier to retrieve the assigned log number of the transaction from the VI03 list then return to the main menu and go into each log number separately to make the change.
