      • Click Edit button located next to the transaction
      • Click Edit Funding
      • Enter the following information within Funding Description Field: "COVID-19, [state the business purpose, brief item description]"
      • Enter the additional information if essential item has been shipped to a remote location: "Items shipped to [enter NAME and ADDRESS of recipient]."

      • Proceed with certification as usual
      • The description you enter will display in SIRI in the Procurement Card tab of the Procurement dashboard
  • Under normal circumstances, all shipments must be sent to a UB address. However, if shipping essential items off campus during this crisis is necessary, include the following statement within your documentation: 

Due to COVID-19, this purchase is being delivered to a remote address for purposes of academic and business continuity. We recognize that this is an exception to the university’s procurement policy, and will only exercise this activity during our response to COVID-19 as necessary. In all cases, purchases remain the property of the University at Buffalo. Goods must be consumed for university purposes and/or be returned to the university for further use.

COVID-19 Guidance

Faculty and staff should consult with their unit leadership regarding any large purchases needed for the continuation of services. Ensure a plan is in place to track credits from any purchases (i.e. conference registrations) which are cancelled due to COVID-19. Responses to commonly asked questions are available at FAQs About State PCards or you may email us with any questions related to one-time limit increases for emergency purchases.
