Purchasing cards are used by agencies to allow employees to procure goods and services outside of the standard purchase requisition process. The purchasing card forms and fields provide a method for tracking the purchases and the expenses that your agency incurs. Each purchase made by an employee with a card is recorded with a vendor invoice, but the invoice is not paid with a check. Each of these invoices is associated with another vendor invoice that is created to pay the vendor that provides the purchasing card service (the financial institution); the expenses incurred by the card purchases are paid off when the balance owed to the card service provider is paid each month.
