A note for all purchasing cardholders

Those with University of Nebraska’s purchasing cards (P-Card) should complete their applications for new cards through UMB Bank by July 30.

The applications must be completed for employees to receive new P-Cards.

The application can be done on UNMC ESS. This process is necessary as the university has switched from US Bank to UMB Bank for purchasing cards.

If approved, applicants will be required to complete a short certification test and acknowledgment on Blackboard. Below is a tentative P-Card transition schedule:

  • July 30 — Target completion of application/test process to allow mass distribution of new P-Cards;
  • Aug. 15 — UMB Bank P-Cards distributed to approved UNMC ESS applicants;
  • Aug. 31 — US Bank P-Cards disabled and no further charges will be authorized; and
  • Sept. 1 — UMB Bank P-Cards activated for use.

Watch the UNMC Today for additional information. Questions regarding the process may be directed to Purchasing at 559-5400.
