Procurement Card Procedures
Capital & Controlled Asset Purchases with the Procurement CardAll Capital and Controlled Purchases are required to be entered into PeopleSoft as a POS requisition. The entire purchase must be entered in the requisition, with a cost breakdown for each item.
Capital Assets Management (CAM) must be notified of all capital and controlled asset purchases within 48 hours of the purchase to insure proper coding, tagging and reporting. A detailed price breakdown such as sales receipt, invoice, quote or packing slip with price listing (only one) from the vendor is required on all capital and controlled purchases and must be forwarded to CAM fax# 713-500-4703. It will be imaged and retained for the life of the asset. Only one is required and a copy will suffice. The original receipts are to be kept in the department file as support to prevent any Audit findings.
