Subject: Resent: Information to assist researchers needing to make purchases using grant
funds
Dear Colleagues,
I heard some people did not receive this email yesterday, so I am resending it.
I am going to resend a few other emails that may apparently did not get distributed
through the college listserv previously.
I’ll add “Resent” in the subject line.
Let me take this opportunity to let you know that not only can you but also that we hope
you will continue to make purchases and charges against your funded research projects
during this time. That will help us reach our NRUF goal of a second year with $45 million
in externally sponsored projects expenditures.
Let me know if you are having any problems related to implementing your research (that are
not based on prohibited contact with human subjects, of course).
Michael

Subject: Information to assist researchers needing to make purchases using grant funds
Dear Colleagues,
If you have a research grant and need to make purchases for the study, here is some
information (including an attachment) that will help you.
In order to unclog the purchasing process, we have a ProCard person in REDKE to place
orders for the faculty using funds in their Sponsored Projects.
First priority in purchasing is to use RowdyExchange. If a vendor is in RowdyExchange then
follow RowdyExchange process.
If Vendor is not in RowdyExchange or there are issues with specific orders through
RowdyExchange, then the attached Credit Card Purchase Request
Form<https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2...
is required for all ProCard purchases. The form requires the following:
1. Department contact and delivery information
2. Vendor contact information
3. Attach a quote or screenshot to ensure correct project is purchased
4. Item quantity and description
5. Funding source information
6. Budgetary approver and signature
7. Instruction on how to make payment (such as website, account information, telephone
number, etc.)
REDKE will manage the above-mentioned Procard to support expenditures, including virtual
conference registrations, paid from externally sponsored projects. Departments shall send
the completed Credit Card Purchase Request Form (attached) to REDKE's team at
ResearchFinance@utsa.edu<mailto:ResearchFinance@utsa.edu> with the 10-digit project
ID in the subject line and copy the principal investigator(s).
Financial Affairs will purchase non-sponsored essential Procard purchases that cannot be
made via Rowdy Exchange. Departments shall send the completed form to
FinancialAffairs@utsa.edu<mailto:FinancialAffairs@utsa.edu>. Once the transaction
has successfully processed, the requester will receive confirmation.
