The procurement card (PCARD) program was created to allow the cardholder to efficiently travel and purchase lower dollar amount items.
PCARD Compliance and Ethics Information:
Remember each time a purchase is made, NKU funds are being committed. We have an obligation to show proper stewardship of university resources.
The Cardholder is responsible for all purchases made on the card.
The PCARD is for university-related purchases only. Personal purchases of any kind are prohibited.
It is the cardholder's responsibility to ensure the card is reconciled every month in a timely manner, even if the cardholder is not performing the reconciliation.
No meals are to be purchased while traveling - you will receive the per diem amount.
If you are aware of the misuse of university funds (regardless of if it is a PCARD purchase or not), report it to the proper person.
All exceptions must be approved in advance of the purchase.
No computers (including laptops) or electronics should be purchased using a PCARD (including iPads).
All PCARD applicants must pass the online test with a 100% score before they will receive their cards.
