Corporate Card Policy Updates – Workday Task Acknowledgement Requirement

You have been identified as an active Corporate Cardholder. A “Task” in Workday will be assigned to you for acknowledging these policy updates on Thursday, October 26th.

To avoid the card(s) from being suspended please acknowledge in Workday that you have read the changes within the next 45 days. Failure to do so may result in card suspension. Reinstatements will require supervisor or Cost Center Manager signature.

  1. TERMINATIONS

Once the termination process is initiated in Workday the Cardholder, Supervisor and Cost Center Manager will begin receiving email alerts. These daily alerts will provide a list of all outstanding transactions which must be either transferred to another Cardholder in the department or reconciled, submitted, and completely approved prior to the last day of employment.

Failure to comply with Corporate Card Policies could lead to corrective action as outlined in Human Resources Discipline Policy.

  1. PERSONAL CHARGES

During an audit should it be found that a cardholder has used either card for personal use  incurring 3 violations within a fiscal year, the card(s) will be cancelled.

A Misuse Form will be sent to the cardholder requesting information as to why the card was used for personal gain. Depending on the severity of the personal charge, HR may be notified which could lead to disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment.

  1. CARD CANCELLATIONS

If a cardholder accrues 3 card suspensions due to non-reconciliation within a fiscal year, the card will be terminated, and the cardholder is not eligible to reapply.
