PCard usage in Folio and EBS

Summary: Instructions for pcard holders to complete EBS documents so that the transactions get paid in FOLIO properly.



Pcard holder

  • Provide the business purpose of the purchase
  • Upload receipt, invoice and/or other documentation of the purchase
  • Reference your last name and the corresponding POL(s) in the line description field(s)
    • If there are too many POLs to list in "line description," use the "notes & attachments" field instead

Pcard approver (Fiscal Office or delegate)

  • FYI Tami Smith to the doc before approving it

Tami

  • Will pay the FOLIO POL as docs are routed to her
  • If an FYI gets missed, Tami will notice on the ledger, and/or the pcard holder can alert Tami that a POL is not yet paid
