Address Verification

Delivery Options
The State requires that we receive items before
payment, so:
• If the item is back-ordered or out-of-stock, do NOT
use your PCard for the purchase.
• But, if the merchant agrees to hold billing until after
the item ships, than it’s OK to use the PCard.

after the purchase is made.

subordinate of the Approver.
