Pcards are not going away.<\/p>\n<p>eShop provides you with another way of obtaining approved goods and services. Order through eShop and you won\u2019t be out of pocket (i.e. like the travel and expense reimbursement system) and you won\u2019t have to reconcile expenses (like Pcard)!<\/p>\n<p><strong>How can I find out more about Pcards?<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Information on procurement cards and how to obtain them can be found through <a href=\"http:\/\/carleton.ca\/purchasing\/procurement-card\/\">Purchasing Services<\/a> or by reading the <a href=\"http:\/\/carleton.ca\/secretariat\/policies\/\">Procurement Card Policy (listed alphabetically on the University Secretariat website)<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>Need Help? <a href=\"http:\/\/carleton.ca\/facts\/cu-events\/\">Purchasing Card System training, which covers reconciling transactions, is offered each summer through the FACTS program<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>Need Help? <a href=\"http:\/\/carleton.ca\/facts\/fast-tools-support-training\/\">The Pcard User Guide<\/a> has step by step instructions for reconciling your Pcard and other helpful information.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello.
