Accounts Payable

All expenditures must be pre-approved by G4-Tech TV Finance.

In order to efficiently facilitate the approval process, we have created an Expense Request Form. This form should be completed by the department / employee requesting the expenditure and sent via e-mail to G4- Tech TV Finance. We have set up two e-mail accounts specifically for these approvals. The first is for expenses related to show production costs; ProdExpense@g4tv.com, and the second is for all other expenses; CorpExpense@g4tv.com.

Expenses will be approved via an e-mail from G4-Tech TV Finance. All expenses greater than or equal to $2500 require CEO approval. Upon receipt of the e-mail approval, it should be printed and attached to an AP voucher. The AP voucher and e-mail approval are then routed to G4-Tech TV's San Francisco Finance Department. All appropriate supporting documents should be submitted along with the AP Voucher. Supporting documents include invoices, check requests, etc.

To properly complete the expense request form you will need the following information:

  • Vendor Name, Address, Telephone #
  • G4 Account Code
  • G4 Department Code
  • Description of Expenditure
  • Date Goods / Services Required
  • Amount of Expenditure


Please see below for information regarding G4-Tech TV Departments and Account Codes.

Employee Reimbursements

Only costs related to travel and entertainment will be reimbursed to G4/Tech employees. All expenses must be in accordance to G4-Tech TV's Travel and Entertainment Policy. Please note that a Travel Authorization must be approved by G4 Finance prior to incurring any expenses.

Original receipts are required for reimbursement of all expenses. Employees submit their expenses on an Expense Report, which can also be found with specific directions on G4-Tech TV's Intranet site. After approval has been obtained, expense reports are submitted to accounts payable for processing.

Accounts Payable audits the expense report, verifying that all expenses are in accordance to G4-Tech TV's Travel & Entertainment policy and that there is an original receipt for each expense listed. They also verify that the employee has signed the expense report and that the proper approvals and account coding have been established. Expenses are reimbursed immediately to the employee upon full approval, which usually takes 5-7 business days.
