Vendor Payment Instructions

Important: If you are a board member, do NOT use this page. Complete the Reimbursement Form.

To Our Trusted Vendors:

Step 1:

Register with VendorShield if not already registered.

Step 2:

Once registered, to submit an invoice:

Preferred and fastest method: submit a PDF invoice via email. The PDF must meet the following requirements:

  • Only email a PDF. No other file format is readable. 
  • Do not send password-protected PDFs or PDFs with links.
  • Send a single PDF file per invoice (multi-page invoices need to be made into a single PDF).
  • Make sure there are no highlighted invoice fields.
  • Do not enter any text or links in the body of the email. This automated system will only read an attached PDF.
  • When sending an email, use Invoices-DPM-MPB@yardifs.com in the "To" field; unique subject lines for multiple invoices. IMPORTANT: Do not put any other addressed in the “To” field. Do not use the “CC” or “BCC” fields.

Why These Policies Matter

  • Automation: Systems like these scan PDFs; incorrect formats or extra info cause errors. Other file formats, including encrypted, forwarded emails and Microsoft Word and Excel files are not readable.
  • Timely Payment: Following rules ensures faster processing; duplicates or errors lead to rejection and delays.
  • Unmonitored inbox: Because this email address is part of an automated workflow, it is not monitored by an employee.

 

If you cannot meet the PDF Requirements, submit your invoice via mail to:

(ASSOCIATION NAME)

PO Box 1326

Hicksville, NY 11802-1326

(IMPORTANT: Please DO NOT put c/o in the address.)
