Making Purchases and Using the Purchase Card
The following information is critical to using University Purchasing Cards. Please review the information and process carefully. Misuse or failure to follow proper protocol, will result in loss of privilege to make purchases. Please ask questions often about the purchase card process. Some items to note:
You will need to be approved prior to getting the Purchase Card. If you did not select the purchase option on your Program and Event Planning Form, you will need to resubmit the form and work with your supervisor to get the right information in our database.
Once you have approval to make the purchase, your supervisor will provide a Purchase Card pick-up date and return date. You cannot return the Purchase Card late.
