Charging Expenses
Airfare, hotel, and shuttle expenses if paid for on line can all be charged to the purchasing card. Hotels will generally fax a credit card authorization for the card holder to complete (if the traveler does not have their own card). You can reserve a rental car with the purchasing card but unless it is your own card you will not be able to use it at time of pick up.
Travel Advances
- We need to have a least one week notice.
- When you return you still need to do a travel claim.
- Your advance will only be for 80% of the total for per diem and mileage.
- If your expenses are less than the advance you will be responsible for paying the difference.
