ACCRE Billing: Getting Started in iLab

As a Vanderbilt University core service, ACCRE monthly billing is scheduled through the ACCRE core in iLab. Before ACCRE can fulfill any service request for your group, you must have the following:

  • iLab account
    • If you do not have an iLab account, follow the steps on the cores page to create your iLab account. 
  • VU Lab
    • If you are affiliated with the University, a VU Lab will be your default assignment. 
    • If you are affiliated with the Medical Center, you must have a VU Lab to schedule payments with the ACCRE Core.
  • Cost string/funding source
    • A funding source must be added to your VU Lab in order to schedule billing. You can work with your department financial unit manager to get your funding source added to your VU Lab, or you can reach out to coresVU@vanderbilt.edu for assistance. 

Service Agreements

ACCRE service agreement requests can be accessed and submitted by the PI and trusted managers of an active ACCRE group. Please note, you must join your ACCRE group before you can access the PI Dashboard. If you are not the PI or trusted manager for your group, you will be unable to access the service request form in the ACCRE PI Dashboard. A trusted manager is designated by the PI at group creation, or requested after the group is created by opening a helpdesk ticket.   

If you have any questions or encounter any issues locating or submitting the service agreements, please contact us for assistance.
