Travel

Since Concur does not establish encumbrances in Banner for travel costs, any trips processed in Concur are automatically paid out from the current fiscal year's funding once reviewed and keyed for payment.

FY26 unrestricted travel expenses require processing prior to the fiscal year roll in order to hit FY26 funding. Contact the Travel Customer Service Office (TCSO) for help with expense reports and card transactions that need resolution before the fiscal year ends.

  • Purchases made with the Travel Agency Card or UA Travel Card are held on a general ledger until assigned to and processed on an expense report in Concur. You can request and book Fund 1, FY27 travel prior to July 1, 2026 with no further action needed, as these charges are applied in the fiscal year in which the expense report is processed (FY27).
  • All FY26 unrestricted travel must have a complete and accurate expense report submitted by July 10, 2026 to guarantee posting to FY26 budgets.

Our staff are happy to answer questions and help navigate the year-end process.
