How long does it take
to get a procurement card?
Once you have sent your completed application to the Procurement
Card Administrator it will take 5 to 7 working days for you to receive
your card.
What may I purchase with the card?
The card may be used for purchases of goods or business services up to
the single purchase limit on the individual card. Some examples of
goods and services that may be purchased with the procurement card
are office supplies, research supplies, printing, duplicating, and
repairs. If the total payment to be made to a vendor for a purchase
exceeds the single purchase limit on the card, including freight, a
purchase order must be used.
Who can get a card?
Any employee may request a Procard if approved by a department head, project
director or other administrative official who has signature authority.
How do I dispute a transaction?
You may dispute a charge that you do not recognize or that appears
to be incorrect. You should first make a good-faith effort to settle a
claim or dispute for purchases directly with the vendor. If
an agreement cannot be reached with the vendor, contact a JP Morgan/Chase
Chargeback Specialist at 888-297-0768.
Disputes must be sent to JP Morgan/Chase
within 45 days of the billing
close date. The closing date for the previous billing cycle is always
on the 5th of the next month.
The following document may be requested by the Chargeback Specialist and should only be completed upon their request:

How does the billing process
work?
When you make a purchase with your procurement card, JP Morgan/Chase
.
the MasterCard supplier, pays the vendor the next day. JP Morgan/Chase
bills The University every 30 days. The department authorizes payment
on its accounts for all charges in the billing cycle using a VP7 document
created by the Purchasing Office.
Can a procurement card be
tied to an Overhead account?
Yes, it can. In fact, we recommend you tie procurement cards to E&G
accounts or Overhead accounts, since they do not expire.
