Expense Claims ESS Travel Out of District

Overview:

  • MUNIS Self Service > Employee Self Service > Expense Claims
  • Upon return from the out of district travel, complete an Expense Claim indicating any costs accrued that you paid out of pocket. This Expense Claim will not include expenses purchased with a PO or P-Card, nor any costs (such as meals) included in the conference.
  • Important - You must add  an Absence Management (formerly Aesop)# or comment and save for later, before entering other expenses to ensure the claim saves.
