Payment References of Authority
Authorized Signatures
The University of Central Oklahoma is not responsible for purchases, leases or contractual obligations unless approved in writing by its authorized agents. Anyone signing a contract or agreement with intent to bind the university must have the authority to do so from the president. Signing an agreement or contract without authority is considered to be acting outside the course and scope of employment and could subject the signer to personal liability.
Check Disbursement
All checks are mailed via the U.S. Postal Service. Checks forwarded to the Student Financial Services Department (formerly referred to as Bursar Office) must be made payable to a UCO organization. These checks will be deposited into the appropriate organization, and a deposit receipt mailed to the applicable financial manager. Exceptions will be made on contracted services bound by a formal contract, approved by UCO Legal Counsel, stating payment is required to be made in person immediately upon completion of services performed.
Note: The UCO standard contract forms do not allow for any exception to the check disbursement policy; therefore, payment for services under standard UCO contracts will be mailed via U.S. Postal Services upon completion of services performed.
Creating Requisitions
In accordance to the Office of State Finance, Chapter Two of the Procedures Manual and Section 23, Article X of the Oklahoma State Constitution and statutes and with regard to Title 62 O.S., Section 41.16, Subsection A, any agency entering into an agreement for the purchase of goods, wares or merchandise, contractual services or construction projects for which labor and material must be furnished by outside vendors, such agreement shall be evidenced by purchase orders encumbered by the agency prior to any goods received or services rendered.
All purchase requests must be approved by the organizational account sponsor prior to products or services being purchased. If a purchase requisition is received without the approval of the organizational account sponsor or written delegated substitute, the requisition will not be processed until such written approval can be acquired.

Computer and Network Access Purchases
The University of Central Oklahoma’s Office of Information Technology, in partnership with the Purchasing Office, has developed a new process for purchasing technology products and services. The two divisions collaborated to provide efficiency and cost-savings benefits to the university. For details of this policy, please review the Knowledge Base Article.
Any technical equipment which accesses the University Network requires IT approval. Requestors should send their request to the UCO Service Desk.
If a department wants to pay for the 4G services based upon business need, they should follow the Mobile/Smart Device Policy.
The Office of Information Technology has published official A/V Multimedia Campus Standards for UCO. Acquisitions for such equipment must be reviewed and approved by IT and follow the standards unless the Office of Information Technology offers an exception.
Employee Payment Policy
All payments made to employees of the University of Central Oklahoma shall be made through the UCO Payroll Department. REF: ADM-FSV-1 Exceptions to this policy are limited to the following:
- Approved reimbursement expenses
- Scholarships and stipends as strictly defined by OSF Procedure Manual, Chapter 100 and Title 74 O.S., Section 4111.
- Scholarships and stipends for students are restricted to payments for educational purposes and must be approved through Student Financial Services.
Food & Beverage Purchases
A MERF Form is required for all requisitions, check requests, petty cash and PCard purchases when food or beverage is involved.
Policy denotes the following: "The University must maintain internal procedures and adequate file documentation which are consistent with the Board policy and which establishes (1) The public purpose of an expenditure, (2) Prior approval by the President or his/her designee, (3) The cost, and (4) Documentation of the reimbursement."
This form is required for all food, refreshments, meals and beverages. The completed and executed MERF must be attached as supporting documentation for requisitions, check requests, petty cash and PCard
purchases.
Independent Contractors, Contractual Services
Anyone hired to perform services at UCO on a short term basis should be considered a temporary employee, utilizing Mosaic. Independent Contractors are the exception, not the rule. Independent contractors have other customers outside of UCO. Independent Contractors are those who follow an independent trade, business or profession in which they offer their specialized services to the public, and are not employees nor perform tasks performed by current employees. The general rule is that an individual is an independent contractor if you, the person for whom the services are performed, have the right to control or direct only the result of the work and not the means or methods of accomplishing the result. REF: IRS.GOVamp;#160; Please note that Honorariums and Stipends are considered payments for services by the IRS.
Applicable Documentation:
Independent Contractor Hiring Procedures
Guest Speaker Agreement
- The Contract for Guest Speaker is utilized for any individual speaking at a UCO venue.
Service Agreement (Individual)
Entertainment Contract
- Utilized for larger bands/bigger entertainment venues wherein risk factors are greater and dollar amounts to hire such performers are substantially more. The Entertainment Contract requires for all correct and accurate paperwork to be clocked into the Purchasing office at minimum, 14 business days prior to the event, and the contract commits to a payment the day of the performance. If the department does not adhere to the 14 business day requirement and the accuracy of all paperwork, no commitment can be made to pay the performer the day of the performance.
Service Agreement (Contractor)
- Utilized for any service of any kind less than $10,000.00 to even include performers/entertainers of small venues, e.g. students playing musical instruments for graduation. Frequently utilized vendors for some services may have UCO Service Agreements on file for an entire fiscal year and, therefore, may not need to be completed for each project per campus customers. Campus customers should check the report Vendors Registered As Independent Contractors with service agreements on file before completing a service agreement.
The noted contracts require five business days to process UCO execution of authority. These days are in addition to the four day processing for purchase orders. The requestor should complete the form and have the Independent Contractor sign the contract.
The contract form should be attached to the requisition and submitted to the Purchasing Department by way of front desk processing and date/time clock stamp with a minimum of 9 business days prior to the independent contractor service being performed. The Purchasing Department will obtain the UCO executor signature once the requisition and all documentation have been reviewed and accepted as complete.
Any other vendor contracts outside of these approved Independent Contractor forms require a six week processing time.
Please Note: If the service performed entails an event to be held on University premises, Risk Management must be notified, at minimum 30 (thirty) business days, before the event date.
All contracts between UCO and vendors require for vendors to carry Oklahoma Worker's Compensation and customary insurance. The Independent Contractor/Vendor agrees to comply with all provisions of the Oklahoma Workers' Compensation laws and maintain such liability insurance as is customary and appropriate in his or her profession or industry.
If the services are to be performed on University premises, the Independent Contractor/Vendor shall provide, upon request, the University with written proof of workers' compensation and customary and appropriate insurance coverage.
Individual Membership Dues Payment Policy
The payment of individual UCO employee's membership dues has been determined to be an invalid expenditure. However, individual 'position' memberships which are transferable are an allowed expenditure.
Payment is authorized by means of purchase order or ProCard. This is in accordance to OMES Statewide Accounting Manual.
Payment Increases and Encumbrances
UCO Purchasing and Payment Services Department has the authority to increase encumbrance documents, purchase orders and payment amounts up to $25 without the financial manager's authorization.
Prepayment of Registration
Registration fees for conferences, meetings, seminars, and similar events will normally be paid by purchase orders. However, in the following specific situations, advance pre-payments (UCO checks issued before the event date or PCard payment) may be allowed:
Option 1
- The organization requires pre-registration along with payment and by standard written policy, will not accept a purchase order.
-OR-
Option 2 (all three must apply)
- A discounted fee is offered if registration is paid in advance (early registration).
- If the registered participant cannot attend, someone else may attend in his/her place.
- If the conference/event is canceled (as a whole) by the sponsoring organization, the University of Central Oklahoma will receive a 100% refund.
These are in accordance to the OMES Statewide Accounting Manual
Applicable Documentation:
Pre-Payment of Registration Form
UCO Policy states that any UCO employee failing to attend or participate in a pre-paid event or an event obligatory by purchase order shall be personally responsible for the incurred costs of pre-payment. Request for exemption of this policy should be made in writing to the Executive Vice President and include copies of all related documentation, preferably prior to the event occurrence.
Violations of this policy may exclude various UCO employees from participating in or requesting pre-paid events.
Receiving Tangible Items
To assure the entire procurement and payment process flow smoothly, it is imperative for departments to properly document partial receipts and full receipts of products (tangible merchandise). In most circumstances, your purchase (ProCard or purchase order) is delivered to Central Receiving and redistributed to your department by Central Receiving personnel. Your signature for delivery is obtained at this time; however, there are situations involving desktop delivery, and purchases do not deliver through Central Receiving. This can also occur when a department purchases and picks up items locally, when the product arrives by U.S. Mail or desktop delivery allows the product to be delivered directly to your office. In these situations, no tangible product is processed through Central Receiving and it is mandatory in each scenario the receiver of the department take one of the following actions:
1. Document the receipt of the product by signing the purchase order copy or signing the packing slip, including the date of receipt, and forwarding to Central Receiving, Campus Box 131.
2. Document the receipt of the product by signing the purchase order copy or signing the packing slip, including the date of receipt, and emailing to djordan@uco.edu
3. Document the receipt of the product by signing the purchase order copy or signing the packing slip, including the date of receipt, and faxing to Central Receiving at 974-3867.
There is no action required by Central Receiving for the following types of purchase orders: Services, Lease/Rentals, Maintenance Agreements, Registration, Hotel Reservations, Memberships.
