Most businesses have accounting codes to which different departments charge
their work, regardless of who actually does it. Why doesn't your Marketing
department provide you an accounting number against which to charge your
work?

I wanted to start this thread a few weeks ago when I first encountered
this problem, but for one reason or another did not. I was curious how
many other people have found themselves in my position. I currently work
in what is called the Operations department, but recently found myself
doing some documentation for the Marketing department. I am in the
Operations department and their respective budget. Working outside of
the Operations department but still getting paid essentially by the
Operations department cause a small amount of friction. I should note
that the Marketing department does not have their own tech writer.

Anyway, I was curious how many of you are in a similar situation as
myself and have been approached by other departments within your company
wanting you to do some work for them.
