You are eligible for a Purchasing Card if you:
The program is aimed at employees who already have responsibility for purchasing supplies for their department. You should have a working knowledge of campus procurement policies and procedures before applying for the card.
If a card is requested for someone who does not already have purchasing responsibilities, a justification will be required on the application. These cards will only be issued on an exception basis where a significant business need is demonstrated.
There are no geographic limits to card eligibility. Employees in field stations, who meet all other requirements, may be good candidates for the program. Since it does not require access to DaFIS, those in remote locations are able to make their purchases more easily.
