Request for Payment

The Request for Payment form is used for processing vendor invoices, reimbursements to employees not related to travel, payments for honoraria or services performed by invited guests, and replenishing departmental reimbursement funds. It should not be used when an online requisition has been completed for the purchase.

Complete the form, after the goods or services have been received, using the original invoice from the supplier. A supplier number is required and can be obtained from Supplier Inquiry in Oracle. If the supplier is not in the Oracle database, have the vendor complete a Supplier Information Form and submit it to Accounts Payable with the Request for Payment.

Procurement Card

The Procurement Card is a VISA credit card, issued by US Bank/ Élan Financial Services showing the name University of Northern Iowa and the individual cardholder’s name. The Procurement Card is designed to provide a more efficient and cost-effective method for departments to purchase small dollar, commonly used items, specifically transactions less than $1,000.

The monthly credit limit will be determined by the department, Business Operations and the Procurement Card Company, based on departmental need. The maximum credit limit allowed per card will be $5,000, unless special approval has been obtained from the Director of Business Operations.

The card is a privilege granted to the individual by the University, so it is the duty of each cardholder to ensure the responsible use of University funds. The University will seek reimbursement for any inappropriate charges made to the card. Fraudulent or intentional misuse of the card will result in revocation of the card.

Procurement card transactions are monitored by the Accounts Payable and Purchasing Services areas of Business Operations, and audited by Internal Audit.

To apply for a University of Northern Iowa Procurement Card complete the Procurement Card Application & Agreement.  NOTE:  See back side of agreement for a list of items disallowed for purchase with the Procurement Card.

Questions regarding the program should be directed to Lisa Steimel, Business Operations, ext 3-5885.
