    1. For Description, indicate: Dates of Travel, Destination, Purpose (conference/professional/research/etc)

  3. Be sure to state how any classes will be handled under ‘disposition of duties’, if you are a faculty member.

  4. If the request contains funding outside of Area funds, attach any email or correspondences confirming use of the outside account and funding amount. This applies to use of chair, professorship, grant, or other department funding sources.

  5.  Assign the RTA to Area Head. The Area will approve and assign the request to the Finance Office group (00259).

  6. Travelers can book/pay directly for airfare for later reimbursement, but your chosen fare must be less then found in Concur/Anthony Travel. Print the quote as proof. An itemized paid receipt must be submitted for reimbursement.

Note

The REQ system does not transfer information to Travel Management Services. You can arrange direct-billed airfare and car rental upon receipt of the Request for Travel Authorization approval email, which contains the VE5/TV numbers needed to book direct billed travel. Please forward direct billed airfare itinerary/receipts to Michelle Belisle upon finalized booking.

  • Request Notes: Communicate to Area/Department any pertinent information.  Please indicate if requesting funding.

  • Though there is a box where you can indicate you “need assistance booking travel”, be aware, the department only provides assistance paying Conference Registration fees. All other arrangements you will need to arrange via Concur, Anthony Travel, or on your own.

  • Assignment Note: Provide information to Assignee regarding request.  Are these established funds? Are you requesting funding and why? This is where you communicate to your Assignee.
