Creating Non-Travel Expense Reports

• ReferencesReferences

  • OBM Travel Rule
  • Travel and Expenses SAFE Policy

Overview

All non-travel expenses are reimbursed through Travel and Expense reports in OAKS FIN. The employee creates an Expense Report and attaches appropriate documentation (e.g., invoice, receipt) after a non-travel expense is incurred. The expense report is routed to a Supervisor for review and approval before being routed to fiscal staff (non-travel approver) for coding review and approval.

Reimbursements for approved expenses generally appear in the state employee’s bank account (via EFT) within 7 days after passing pre-audit approval.
