P-cards act very similarly to company credit cards and are available to certain faculty and staff.
Who is eligible for a P-card and how do I request one?
Only Deans, Directors, Chairs, or Vice Presidents may make requests for employees to receive a P-card. P-cards may be requested for A&P staff, faculty, USPS, and OPS employees who are involved in travel and/or frequently purchasing commodities for their department. Personal Credit Scores will not be considered for P-card approval.
If I am approved to receive a card, what else do I need to do?
All requests must be accompanied by a completed Cardholder Profile, a Cardholder Agreement, and an Ethics and Purchasing Certification Form. These forms can be found here: http://fa.ucf.edu/Forms/Forms.cfm#Forms_PCard
All future P-card holders must also complete and achieve an 80% or higher in a P-card training course (FPO 115).
If you have additional questions about a P-card (such as purchasing, responsibilities, troubleshooting, etc.), the following resources are available:
