Core Financial System

The Financial Management System (FMS) is the core financial system. Further information can be found on the FMS Knowledge Hub.

Asset Management System

The University has implemented an Asset Management System. It supports devolved, departmental control of assets and, in relation to research equipment, feeds details into the PURE system.

Further details can be found on the Asset Register page.

Departments should be aware that they must utilise this system to maintain asset records and should contact financial-systems@strath.ac.uk with any queries.

Online Shop and payment platforms

The Finance systems team can provide secure and convenient payment systems to purchase products, conferences, and short courses from the University.

There are several options available:

  • Online shop
  • Payment gateways
  • Bespoke integrations with third party suppliers

All new or existing payment systems across the University must be approved by the Deputy Director Of Finance, Operations and the PCI-DSS compliance officer, even if not using the systems above.

All payment systems must be confirmed as Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) compliant and the policies must be adhered to.
