Travel That Includes Personal Time

When combining business and personal travel please follow the guidelines below.

If you are planning to have combined personal and business travel, a price comparison must be done in Concur at the time of booking. If the price of the combined travel is less than or equal to the business travel alone, you can use your Travel Card to book in Concur or with Anthony Travel. If the travel including personal time exceeds the business portion, you must pay personally for the whole trip and submit for reimbursement for the business portion only. Anthony Travel cannot assist with personal travel arrangements. Please refer to this link for assistance: Guide to Obtaining a Price Comparison

Please bear in mind that no personal hotel lodging should be charged to the Travel Card. It is the responsibility of the cardholder to work with the hotel to ensure that only the nights related to business travel are charged on the Travel Card, and nights related to personal travel go on a personal card. When traveling with a significant other or family, you cannot book their travel within Concur or utilize Anthony Travel.

Adding Attendees to Your CBS Report

To align with the expense reports on the Travel side, we have given you the ability to add your attendees to Business Meals (Non Catered) and Catering expenses on a Company Billed Statement Report. This will eliminate the need for a Business Meal Preapproval Form. If the Attendees link does not display in that expense, please change the expense type and then change it back to the original expense type. This happens when the report was created prior to the change for adding attendees.

New Guest and Student Lodging Expense Type

In efforts to incorporate your feedback and provide a solution, expense reports submitted for Guests and Students can utilize the new Lodging-Guest expense type. This expense type will remove the requirement of an itinerary for reports submitted on behalf of Guests and Students. With this update, it will now solve the issue with overlapping itineraries if there are multiple Guests or Students who were traveling on the same dates.
