To strengthen accountability and fiscal stewardship, Travel & Expense Management is updating the expense report submission process effective Wednesday, September 17, 2025.
-
What’s Changing: Requestors will now be responsible for reviewing and submitting their own expense reports.
-
Support Provided: The Travel and Expense Reimbursement Team will continue assisting with report creation. Once a report has been built, the team will add a comment in the ServiceNow ticket notifying the requestor that the report is ready for submission and update the ticket status to “Waiting for Approver.”
-
Why This Matters: Final review and submission by the requestor ensure that all information is accurate, compliant, and aligned with university policy.
How to Submit:
Refer to our Step-by-Step Guide to Submitting an Expense Report for detailed instructions.
We appreciate your partnership in maintaining compliance and being responsible stewards of university resources. For questions or support, contact travel@ucmerced.edu.
