Registration fees for conferences should be paid directly by the department P-Card holder (pending prior approval, if applicable). If a credit card is not accepted, a purchase order should be submitted as soon as possible for processing (see your department/office Administrative Assistant for assistance).
Traveler will provide department Administrative Assistant with appropriate backup documentation, such as, account to be charged, event, dates, and type of registration needed (ex. number/which days, hotel/motel included/not included option, in-person/virtual, etc.). Administrative Assistant (P-Card holder) requires this documentation to be included with reconciliation of their P-Card or Purchase Order creation.
*Note: Actual payment for a registration fee via purchase order cannot be processed until after the conference is held. Conference attendees should check at the point of making arrangements to attend if a purchase order will secure registration.
