This guide walks through the process of reconciling a Cash Advance in Concur.
Employees who will be paid via ACH will now be able to submit requests for cash advances, and reconcile those advances, through Concur. Employees who need their advances wired internationally and students will be required to follow a manual process outside of Concur.
Cash Advances must be reconciled within 30 days after the Event End Date.
Follow these steps to return any unused Cash Advance funds.
Cash Advances will be issued as outlined in Policy 1214: Non-Salary Cash Advances.
