Xetta is UQ's official system for recording and receipting payments.

Only organisational units that are approved to use Xetta can accept and receipt:

  • in-person payments
  • credit card payments over the phone.

See the Receipting and Banking Procedures for more information.

Access for your organisational unit

If your organisational unit takes a high volume of in-person payments and has valid reasons for requiring Xetta for point-of-sale transactions you need to submit a business case to Cash Allocations.  

Information to include in the business case:

  • the business being conducted by the organisational unit
  • the value and volume of payments
  • type of clientele
  • why there is a need for point-of-sale transactions.

Access for individual staff members

If your organisational unit uses Xetta and you need to arrange new or updated access, complete:

  1. both lessons in the Xetta online training. Note: Lesson 2 Training Success Meter requires a pass mark of 90%.
  2. the  Xetta access request form (PDF, 198.3 KB) and email it to Cash Allocations. 

Using Xetta

There are a number of things you can do as a user to ensure Xetta runs productively and effectively:

  • shut down your computer each day and restart each morning
  • make sure you log in to the Internet Management System/Single Sign On before logging in to Xetta 
  • run the End of Day process before you run the Session Manager process
  • if you get errors or the system freezes, tick 'Refresh Local Settings' when you log back into Xetta to refresh your computer.
