Purchase Card Spend (2022/23)

We publish purchase card spend on a quarterly basis. This dataset currently includes all data for 2022/23. The departments in this dataset do not align to those in the Council's £500 spend report. This is because different systems are used to record the data. The description of the transactions in this report is limited. This is because the systems which purchase card suppliers use only report at level 1 card data. Level 1 purchasing card data includes the same information captured during a traditional credit card purchase transaction. This includes: total purchase amount, date, merchant category code and supplier/retailer name.
