The Office of the State Auditor encourages all vendors to sign up for electronic payment (direct deposit) of all payments received from the State of South Dakota. Electronic payments, or Direct Deposits, are the safest way to get your money into your accounts without having to worry about lost, stolen or damaged checks.

Vendors can sign up for electronic payments through the Bureau of Finance & Management's Vendor Self Service web site. http://www.state.sd.us/bfm/vendor/index.asp

One Time Only Direct Deposits

Vendors who are not registered with BFM and receive a one time payment will have to complete the  State Auditor’s “One Time Only Direct Deposit Form”.  Electronic payments will not be made without vendor authorized bank account information.

The State Auditor’s One Time Only Direct Deposit Form is in Acrobat (pdf) format and can be downloaded at the the following link: http://www.sdauditor.gov/DirectDeposit.pdf

This form should be completed by the vendor and sent to the Auditor's Office with the voucher and payment detail. This form should only be used if the agency is requesting a ONE TIME PAYMENT.
