Pre-Approval Travel Report
The Pre-Approval Report should be completed and approved prior to travel, regardless of the cost to the university.
Pre-approvals reports must be completed and approved before travel for overnight in-state, out-of-state, and foreign travel for 福利姬 employees and student travelers. An approved Pre-Approval Report encumbers the funds if budget is available in the 710 (Travel) Budget Pool in Banner.
