Dockets should not be signed by the cardholder or by anyone else taking delivery of the goods unless they are completed by the vendor with an adequate description of the goods. This should be requested when ordering. The cardholder's copy of the signed dockets must be retained in the School. Purchase goods at the best price available. If goods are returned to the vendor for credit, an adjustment note must be obtained and the log noted.
Purchases are only to be made at secure sites.
No purchases can be made over the internet unless the information you send is encrypted. All credit card transactions on the site must take place in secure mode. A similar alert message may appear when you move from secure mode to insecure mode. There are several ways to confirm that you are in a secure area. Both Netscape and Internet Explorer have a symbol to indicate secure mode.
