Please do not alter them in any way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While you may print, sign and scan all documents, online fill-in forms are available for some documents. Downloading a copy of the document and clicking the signature box will allow signers to apply a certified electronic signature. If multiple signatures are required the first signer must download, sign and save the document to a shared folder accessible by the second signer. That signer then opens, signs, and saves the document.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The complete costing string (formerly company, unit, account and now fund, cost center, account) number must be on all accounting forms submitted to the Business Office.
