  • New! SPCC/Local Card Payment Requirements – Michelle Pickham, Procurement
    • Effective May 16, 2024, the University of Mary Washington will require the use of the SPCC if the supplier accepts charge cards as a payment method, unless any surcharge/convenience fee imposed by the supplier totals $450 or greater. This means that buyers/departments will no longer have the option to pay by check to avoid charge card fees if the value of the fees equals less than $450. The supplier must still follow all the requirements as stated in the Charge Card Fee Requirements section on the Procurement website.
    • It is the responsibility of the Cardholder to understand and/or verify the payment methods accepted by the suppliers they use. Use the How to Verify Supplier Accepted Payment Methods section for guidance.
    • If you have any questions regarding this policy please contact Julie Smith. SPCC Charge Card Fee Guidancenote: this website will not be updated with this information until May 16th
  • Annual Spend Profile/Restriction review is underway.
      • You may be contacted by the Program Admin to discuss any recommended changes to your card profile based on your spend history over the past year. Changes will only occur with approval from the cardholder and their supervisor.
  • Works
    • Please be sure to enter the correct FOAPAL information when coding your purchases is in Works. The FOAP in Works should always match the FOAP in eVA.

Accounts Payable – email Leigh Penn, Accounts Payable with questions.

  • Late Invoices
    • If your invoice is late due to an error/misplacement etc. made by UMW, contact AP for due date options. Requesting a new invoice to further delay payment may not be the best options.
  • Receive on invoices as soon as possible, following prompt pay guidelines.
