Who approves the expense reimbursement for research assistants, and other employees, if the expense is grant-funded?
The system configuration only allows for the Department head to be the first approver. However, your department head will forward the original and a hard copy of expense reimbursement request to the Office of Sponsored Operations. If your department has a business manager or administrative assistant who processes reimbursements, then that person will review the expense reimbursement and forward the original and copy it to Grants/Office of Sponsored Operations for review. Office of Sponsored Operations will forward the approved expense reimbursement to Business Services/Accounts Payable. Please note that payment cannot be issued without having both the electronic approval by the Department head and the original receipts with a hard copy of the expense report. Please see separate procedure for Sponsored Operations approval which will be documented by on hard copy only. (See Workflow for Grant-Funded Travel Expense Statements).
