Expense Report Submittal Submittal and reimbursements dates will not change. Expense reports should be entered as early as possible. Information entered in the expense module should be reviewed carefully – the information entered will appear on client invoices. – Avoid grammatical and spelling errors – Be mindful of the sensitive nature of MBP projects Report status may be monitored electronically – TMs will be able to check when reports are approved and processed.
10
Expense Report Approval Supervisors should review expense reports at least twice a week. Daily review is encouraged. Accounting will review expense reports every other day at a minimum to allow plenty of time to correct and re- submit reports by the deadlines. Accounting will not review reports until the reports are approved by supervisors. If Accounting identifies a problem with a report on the last day before a submittal deadline, there will not be time to re-submit for the current payment cycle. Early submittal and approval benefits EVERYONE!
