Travel and Expense Management
Expense reports must be submitted and approved by Supervisors by 12/6 IN CONCUR in order to be paid in 2023. After 12/6 any previous expense will not be able to be reconciled in Concur or transferred to Workday. Charges not reconciled and approved by 12/6 will be charged against their Division’s Reserve. P-card transactions/expenses after 12/6 should be for emergency use only to minimize the number of expense reports being held/submitted in Workday after go-live. Please plan ahead. Any new transactions/expenses after 12/6 will be held and submitted IN WORKDAY after go-live. |

P Card Charges Charges posted to your card until December 6 should be reconciled in Concur as soon as possible. Charges posted to your card after 12/6 will need to be reconciled on an Expense Report in Workday in January. We encourage you to complete all transactions using a P Card in November to minimize the number of transactions to be completed within Workday in January. |

Payment Options
Preferred Travel Payment Options:
- Pcard: Intended for use if traveling more than twice a year or spending University funds regularly. The cardholder should be used for all purchases and travel, including meals. Request a Pcard
- Declining Balance Card: Intended for access to cash and for one time use travel and expenses when an individual does not have a Pcard or personal funds. Request a Declining Balance Debit Card
- Personal Funds should only be used if an individual is not eligible for a Pcard.
Cash Advances will be very rarely handed out and will need to be authorized in advance by the Business Office with reasoning as to why one of the options below are not feasible. Please contact the Travel Team if you need to request an advance.
Travel advance requests in the form of a SVDC or Cash, along with the necessary forms can be found in section 311 of the Business & Finance Procedures.
