FAQ's
How can I get a Procurement Card?
- The employee should speak with their supervisor to determine if their job duties include making purchases for their department/office.
- If it is determined that a P-card is necessary for the position, review the Pro-Card Manual (see Purchasing forms), complete Attachments I and II, obtain your supervisor’s signature and send to the Controller’s Office for processing.
- The Controller’s Office personnel will contact you once the card has been ordered and will provide training for properly using and coding your transactions in the system.
How can I get petty cash/change funds for an upcoming event?
- Petty cash funds are approved under limited circumstances when other payment options are not available. Generally a P-card can handle most small expenditures. The Vice President and/or Dean may request the establishment of a working petty cash fund at any appropriate level, (i.e. division, department, office, or station). Petty cash funds must be formally requested and approved and may not be independently created by holding back deposits or receipts for such use.
- There are two types of cash funds approved for use at WNC:
- Petty cash funds – cash funds established to provide individual departments small amounts of cash to make direct purchases.
- Change funds – cash funds established to provide service organizations with sufficient coin and currency to make change for operational purposes.
- To obtain change funds for your upcoming event, please follow the steps as listed below to ensure that you have funds in hand prior to your event:
- Complete a Workday Expense report AT LEAST A WEEK PRIOR TO YOUR EVENT. Failure to do so, may result in funds not being available for your event.
- When completing the Expense report, be sure the following fields contain the following:
- BUSINESS PURPOSE: Petty Cash/Change Fund Establishment
- REIMBURSEMENT PAYMENT TYPE: Check
- FUND: FD890 Pooled Cash and Banking (you will need to override this fund from the defaulted one that results when you enter your work tag)
- Controller’s Office will issue the check prior to your event and employee must pick up at the cashier window. You will be notified when the check is ready for pick up.
- Upon conclusion of the event, the requestor needs to return the petty cash/change funds to the Controller’s Office within 3 business days.
