It is the electronic version of your receipt – delivered straight from the supplier – that uploads easily into your expense report. Please check your Concur profile to ensure that you have enabled e-receipts.
The receipt store (Available Receipts link) is where you can store receipts by uploading them into one place. You may then attach the receipt to your expense report by using this option.
All travel must be approved by either the budgetary authority or official designee. The Principal Investigator (PI) is the budgetary authority for grant/contract funds (“G” Projects) and, for compliance reasons, Grant & Contract Accounting will provide an additional review and approval. Faculty and staff are responsible and accountable for the appropriateness and accuracy of expenses they submit. An expense report approver should hold a higher position than the traveler holds and/or be an appropriate approver for the center being charged. Expense reports other than those for "G" Projects require one approval require one approval. However, all reports are subject to additional review and audit, both internal and external, for compliance with SMU policy, federal grant requirements and IRS regulations.
All employee travel forms, including the Travel Report have been discontinued. Travelers must still obtain the proper authorization before booking travel. This is done by creating and submitting a Travel Request in Concur.
The approver(s) on a Travel Request is the budget authority or expense owner of the orgs that are in the Travel Request. The Request will be routed and approved electronically by the budget authority/expense owner(s).
CBT provides SMU faculty and staff with a 24-hour help desk.
