Non-Cash Gifts, Awards and Incentive Policy FAQ

Our department does not have a Purchasing Card. What method of payment should be used for purchasing non-cash gifts or awards?

Departments that regularly make business-related purchases should apply for a Purchasing Card, which is the most cost-effective method of payment. Alternatively, a department may process a Payment Request through the Concur Reporting System to pay the vendor. A payment will be issued within 10 business days after Business Services receives a properly completed Payment Request. Reimbursements to employees for gift purchases should be discouraged.
