Coming soon! New ways to pay lease invoices

The Lease Payment form will be updated in April to allow for a more efficient and controlled process for submitting real estate lease invoices to be paid. Agreements for real estate leases will now be entered into Mountaineer Marketplace and payments will be tied to the applicable contract number.

WVU and US Bank are currently working together in a campaign to move our suppliers from check payment to our virtual card program. The program is called WVU Payment Plus and the email will look like the screen shot below. If a supplier contacts you asking if the email or call they received is legitimate, please suggest that they contact PCPS with any questions.

As a reminder, utilities other than phone/internet/cable must only be processed in Mountaineer Marketplace and are not permitted on the PCard. This is an important control we have in place to avoid duplicate payments of utilities. It also allows us to effectively report on the status of payments and any payment discrepancies with the suppliers.

Please make sure to submit the invoices on the Utilities Form in Mountaineer Marketplace as soon as possible to avoid late payments. We suggest seeing if you can receive the invoice via email or through the supplier’s website instead of a receiving the paper invoice in the mail.

Distribution Set Numbers (DSN’s) are used in the process of certain backbills (i.e. postage and certain ITS-related backbills), as well as the prepaid card process. Historically, we have relied on emails to request new DSN’s or to update existing DSN’s. We now have a Qualtrics form that must be used for the following:

If you use the Internet Explorer (IE) or Microsoft Edge Legacy web browsers for work or study, plan to switch to a browser such as Edge, Chrome or Firefox by Nov. 30 to ensure continued functionality and security.

Microsoft is decommissioning the IE and Edge Legacy browsers in 2021. After Nov. 30, you could begin to see degraded performance with Microsoft Office 365 apps such as Outlook and Teams, and eventually, the browsers will stop working with those services. You may also begin to see degraded performance with both WVU and non-WVU applications.

As part of a scheduled maintenance, Mountaineer Marketplace will be unavailable beginning at 9 p.m. tonight (Friday, Nov 6) through noon on Sunday, Nov 8.
