E-Reimbursement \u2013 Traveler \u2013 Expense Report<\/strong><\/p>\n

How long do I have to submit an expense report?<\/strong><\/p>\n

You have 90 days from the date of the expense incurred for non-travel expenses, and 90 days from the end of the trip for travel expenses.\u00a0 The one exception is relocation related expenses (which are all taxable to the employee).<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

How is the Frequently Used Expense Type list derived?\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n

It is the top 10 used expense types in the last six months.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

How should I input lodging expenses?\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n

All lodging days should be combined into one expense line with the expense date being the check-out date so it matches the hotel receipt.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Why do I receive an error when I\u2019m trying to put in the over lodging maximum Exception Comment?<\/strong><\/p>\n

You will receive a Maximum number of records error message when trying to put in the Exception Comment.\u00a0 Just click OK at the error screen and it will bring up the exception box to be filled in.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Will the Custom Funding Link chartfield values be updated when changing the funding in the Accounting Default link?\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n

No.\u00a0 Custom Funding chartfield values on the button link do not change to reflect the change made in the Accounting Default link.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Where can you fill in the Justification for the trip information?\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n

It can be filled in at the General Information page or at the end before you can submit the Expense Report for approval.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Why is the Justification box handled differently in 9.2?\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n

Justification is called Notes in 9.2.\u00a0 Once you add a Note, there are buttons to Add Notes or Edit.\u00a0 The Edit button will only allow you to delete the Note.\u00a0 You cannot make changes once the Note is saved.\u00a0 The suggestion is to copy the original note to the clipboard and click Add Notes. Copy in prior information and make necessary changes to the new Note.\u00a0 Once new Note information is saved Delete the previous note.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Can I delete the justification note if the report is sent back?\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n

Yes, you can delete anything you created even if the report is sent back to you.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

How do I attach receipts?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Receipts are attached on the General Information page.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Do attachments come along when copying a prior expense report? <\/strong><\/p>\n

No.\u00a0 Attachments won\u2019t be copied from previous reports during copy functionality.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Does the withdraw function change the original submit date and time?\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n

No, it will still keep the original date and time and show another line in the history for the withdraw step.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Since the beginning of e-reimbursement until we decide to archive data.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

How much of a deduction is there for Meals for the first and last day of the trip?<\/strong><\/p>\n
