This method gives departments the opportunity to purchase goods and services, costing $4,999 or less without preparing a Departmental Purchase Order (DPO). MasterCard is the charge card vendor for the Commonwealth of Virginia. The charge card eliminates vendor invoices and consolidates multiple vendor payments into one monthly payment to MasterCard. MasterCard makes payments directly to the vendors. Information reports are available to help cardholders and departments maintain control over purchases and payments. Departments shall maintain a record of their purchases so spending limits can be monitored and purchasing activity can be reconciled to the monthly card statements. Accounts Payable does not require the Purchasing Record for payment processing, however departments must retain all MasterCard records for three (3) years plus current fiscal year for auditing by the Office of Accounts Payable. Currently, use of the SPCC is limited to amounts up to $4,999 per purchase transaction. Departments are liable for authorized charges made using the card, cardholders are responsible for official University purchases only. The University does not permit use of the card for personal items; cash advances, and travel expenses. To maximize the reduction in administrative costs, cardholders should make purchases from vendors who accept the card. To save administrative time, departments may use the following expenditure account codes for expenditures charged to the card. 120900 - All SPCC purchases of Contractual Services. 130900 - All SPCC purchases of Supplies and Materials. 220900 - All SPCC purchases of Equipment. These codes are for expenditure control only, DO NOT USE THE CODES FOR BUDGET REQUESTS. Cardholders may contact the MasterCard Program Administrator, x87396 or x87395 if they have questions concerning appropriate use of the card. .200 Request, Change or Cancel a Card Department Heads may request cards for employees who have authority to purchase items for the department. To request cards, the Department shall complete the MasterCard Small Purchase Charge Card Delegation Agreement form and forward it to the MasterCard Program Administrator, MSC 5712 for processing. The MasterCard Program Adminstrator will notify the department when they receive the card. Employees shall come to the Accounts Payable Office to pick up the card and to sign the Delegation Agreement acknowledging that They have received the card. A picture id as well as a document providing your social security number is required when picking up your card. Cardholders may contact the MasterCard Program Administrators by email at dellinjx@jmu.edu or shiffltl@jmu.edu, to have changes made to existing cards. Department Heads shall approve any changes to information on the Delegation Agreement. Cardholders shall return cards to the Accounts Payable Office immediately upon request of their Department Head or the Accounts Payable Office. The cardholder shall also return the card when terminating employment or transferring from one University Department to another. .300 MasterCard Small Purchase Charge Card Security Authorized use of the card is limited to the person whose name appears on the face of the card. Individual cardholders shall not lend the card to another person. The cardholder may request a card for another department employee, with procurement authority, when the cardholder will be absent from work for an extended period. Cards should be kept in an accessible but secure location. The cardholder should not post the card account number or leave it, or the leave card in a conspicuous place. If the card is lost or stolen, the cardholder shall immediately notify the MasterCard Program Administrators, x87396 or x87395. James Madison University is liable for purchases, made by authorized users, with the SPCC, if the purchase is within the single per transaction dollar limit and does not exceed $4,999. James Madison University does not accept liability for the following: Unauthorized use of cards. Account numbers that are fraudulently used. Purchases, made with stolen or lost cards, which exceed the maximum limit ($50) and the maximum length of liability (24 hours after discovery and reporting of card loss or theft). .400 Returns, Credits, and Disputed Items Usually, the cardholder and the vendor that provided the goods and services can resolve disputes. The cardholder shall use the following guidelines when returning an item: Always contact the vendor, whatever the reason for the return, to determine the correct procedure for returns. Request the vendor to issue a credit receipt for items returned. The credit should appear on a subsequent charge card statement. Credit balances noted on monthly MasterCard SPCC statements are posted on the Departmental Monthly Detail Report. If you have any questions please contact the MasterCard Program Administrators at x87396 or x87395. Enter descriptive information and the credit amount of the return on the Department Purchasing Record. Keep all documentation, that support returns, on file for reconciling the charge card statement. If the cardholder and the vendor cannot resolve an issue, the cardholder should contact MasterCard. They will investigate the dispute for the cardholder, assist in the resolution, and will issue a temporary credit, pending final resolution. .500 Reconciliation of the MasterCard Charge Card Statement The cardholder and the University are responsible for retaining documentation of purchases and returns. Departments shall reconcile transactions in the PeopleSoft Finance System, using documentation and information on the Department Purchasing Record, to the monthly MasterCard Charge Card Statement. Listed below are required procedures for reconciliation: Around the 20th of each month the Charge Card Section of Accounts Payable will receive the monthly file from MasterCard. This file will be loaded into the PeopleSoft Finance System. Once the file is loaded into PeopleSoft each card is required to be reconciled online. During the reconciliation process you will match up receipts to each charge, assign the correct expenditure code for each transaction and indicate the eVA exclusion or PCO/DO number. If sales tax has been charged for a purchase it is the responsibility of the cardholder to have that tax amount credited back to the card. In order to reconcile in PeopleSoft, the reconciler must take the Charge Card Reconciliation class offered by IT Training (IIS204) and complete pages 1 and 2 of the IIS Access form. Once the charge card has been reconciled in PeopleSoft, a report will be generated and printed off. This is the Monthly Small Purchase Charge Card Coversheet and Purchase Log. The cardholder and supervisor and/or signature authority (can not be the cardholder) will sign each coversheet. A copy of the signed coversheet and purchase log are then to be sent to Accounts Payable by the 15th of each month. Each cardholder is responsible to have all original receipts, original coversheet, original purchase log, original business meal certification for any food purchased, a copy of the Travel Authorization for air/rail tickets and conference registration fees and the boarding pass for any airline charges on file for 3 fiscal years plus current fiscal year for audit purposes. Failure to maintain proper records can lead to the suspension or revocation of the small purchase charge card. .600 Purchases/Expenditures .610 Restricted Purchases Cardholders may not charge the following purchases to the SPCC: Purchases costing more than $4,999. Narcotics or dangerous drugs. Alcoholic beverages. Firearms and ammunition. Yearly maintenance agreements that are paid monthly. Furniture. Purchases from state employees. Property and equipment leases. Lodging or restaurant purchases. Besides the listed restricted items, cardholders should not charge purchases that are recurring in nature, such as, rentals and towing charges to the card. .620 E-Commerce Purchases Departments may purchase goods or services up to $4,999 using their SPCC through the Internet. Since the card number is transmitted when making purchases, users must be certain the vendor has a Secure Socket Layer (SSL) Version 2.0 or greater. To ensure the vendor has a SSL, the Address Window must start with https://. This may not occur until the payment information is requested. For information about the vendor’s security certification, check under "Help" on the browser tool bar. If you place an internet purchase, a comfirming order must be submitted into eVA. On-line auctions (example: e-bay) is allowed when all rules governing Procurement procedures and Accounts Payable payments are met. The MasterCard Program Administrator/Compliance Auditor will audit each of these transactions for compliance. Both the SPCC and the Travel Card may be used to purchase airline and rail tickets over the Internet. The SPCC may be used as a "method of payment" for conference registrations. All compliance issues still apply as this registration is subject to a maximum prepayment period of 90 days. The Travel Card may be used to purchase lodging as well. As with all purchases, departmental funds must be available before making any expenditure commitments. .630 Gift Card Purchases Gift Cards may only be obtained by employees who have the SPCC (Small Purchase Credit Card). A cap of $500.00 must be placed on each gift card. An employee may complete a “point of sale” purchase of a gift card with a declining balance for their department. All purchases must be documented and receipts retained for purchases made using the gift card. (Departments are responsible for any documentation that would be required in an Audit). These purchases must fall within the Accounts Payable and Procurement guidelines. .640 Infractions on the Small Purchase Chare Card In the event a cardholder makes an inappropriate expediture on the small purchase charge card the following penalties will be enforced.
