• Concur’s workflow is based on FOAP owner. If a FOAP does not have an assigned owner or if you are the owner of the FOAP, then the workflow will default to your manager.
• If you do not think your workflow is routing correctly, please contact the Carlow University Travel Office.

• A travel request through Concur is required to ensure proper approval for travel has been obtained prior to the purchase of any travel related expenses. Request is used to provide the FOAP approver with the ability to understand the overall cost of the trip and determine whether or not they are willing to cover all costs associated with this trip. Requests can be allocated to multiple FOAPs, if departments are splitting the cost of an employee’s travel. The approved travel request is used by the travel office to ensure an adequate credit limit is established on traveler’s card for the duration of the trip and to cover any pre-trip expenses (i.e. airline costs, conference fees, deposits, etc).
• Exception to this requirement is made for frequent travelers whose supervisors have approved a monthly credit limit to cover Carlow University sponsored travel. Please be aware of your credit limit as a request may be necessary if you will be doing excessive travel that will exceed your monthly credit limit.

Go to Travel Request Reference Guide under Job Aid / Training.

• The GSA Per Diem rate for the city you are traveling to should be used for your request to estimate the funds needed to cover meal costs while you are away.

All meal expenses require a receipt when submitted with your expense report. Helpful Hint: Use the Concur App to take pictures of meal receipts while traveling and they will automatically be uploaded into Concur and matched with your credit card transaction.
