Spend Authorization Instructions

(Return to Travel page)

  • Please complete the Spend Authorization in Workday.  This should be done at least 7 business days prior to your trip.

We don’t need to complete the following, but just in case:

Conference Registrations
– These should be paid for with a PCard so this section is N/A.

Travel Advance
– A travel advance allows a traveler to receive cash to use to defray reimbursable lodging and meal expenses while performing official duties.

  • A department may not request a travel advance if the period of travel is less than 15 days.
  • A traveler may not receive a travel advance more than 15 days before the start of travel.
