Tony, We have an entire chapter in our administrative Business Policies and Procedures Manual (BPPM) regarding various aspects of the travel process. In that chapter, we have separate sections regarding travel advances (titled Travel Authority for the form used to request advances) and travel expense reimbursements (titled Travel Expense Voucher). Each of the section includes links to other applicable policies.
You may view the text of these sections, though the forms are restricted to WSU access only: BPPM Chapter 95: Travel http://public.wsu.edu/~forms/HTML/BPPM/95_Travel/95.00_Contents.htm 95.05: Travel Authority http://public.wsu.edu/~forms/HTML/BPPM/95_Travel/95.05_Travel_Authority.htm 95.05: Travel Expense Voucher http://public.wsu.edu/~forms/HTML/BPPM/95_Travel/95.20_Travel_Expense_Voucher.htm Hope this helps — Deb ------------------------- Deb Bartlett Director Office of Procedures, Records, and Forms Washington State University Pullman, WA 99164-1225 Phone: 509-335-2004 Fax: 509-335-3969 Email: [email protected] From: "Graham, Anthony R" <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Reply-To: Association of College and University Policy Administrators <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Date: Wednesday, September 28, 2016 at 12:28 PM Subject: Separate Travel and Business Policies or Combined All, We are updating our current Travel and Business Expense policy. It is one document now and it pretty long and unwieldly. I recommended that we split it into three policies (travel, travel advances, and business expense). We are getting questions from eventual users of the policy on why we decided to separate the two (because they use the same reimbursement process). My initial review consisted of the structure that the University of Minnesota and Cornell University use (separate policies), but I would like more information to support our rationale for either using one or separating them. Can you share with me your structure on travel and business (hospitality) expenses? Thank you, Tony Graham Manager Sarbanes-Oxley 3100 Cathedral of Learning University of Pittsburgh 412-624-4206
