If there are budget errors, the cardholder and / or reconciler will receive an email notifying them of which FOAP and expense did not upload. If the situation is not resolved within 3 business days, the P-Card Section Manager will contact the cardholder’s supervisor for resolution. As the fiscal year comes to a close, we remind you that FOP’s 11B027 & portions of 11B023 will be swept in July. Any charges to be allocated to these FOP’s should have already been made. **Reminder from the State Comptroller** The following reminder was in last month’s Comptroller newsletter indicating the importance of not paying sales taxes: Recent audit findings included instances where sales tax was paid on payment card purchases. This is a reminder that state agencies and institutions of higher education are exempt from paying Texas state sales tax on all goods and services.

The invoice or receipt with detail of the transaction is a necessary document that must be kept as backup to validate the expense that is processed on the bank statement. The following is an example of acceptable documentation. The Sales slip/credit card agreement slip alone does not validate the detail of the purchase and therefore must be kept with the detailed receipt/invoice.
