P-Card Reimbursements from the USF Foundation as a Direct Service Organization (DSO) Overview

The University has granted a new process that allows for reimbursement from the USF Foundation (DSO) for expenses charged to USF PCards.  This process will allow departments to take advantage of the benefits of paying for expenses with the USF PCard where the funding source may ultimately be through a DSO.

PLEASE NOTE:  PCard rules and regulations apply to ALL purchases made with a USF PCard, regardless of whether reimbursement will be secured, including the necessity of having a FOOD AGREEMENT in place prior to any food purchase.  NO PURCHASES OF ALCOHOL WILL BE APPROVED!

Frequency:  As Needed
