ERS - a web-based application to submit reimbursement requests

To enter the Employee Reimbursement System (ERS) application, select Log In on the left.

ERS is used to compensate employees and non-employees for expenses incurred while on travel status and to pay for group meal and meeting expenses.

Expense Reports

Expenses are entered into expense reports in ERS. All required expense documentation is attached to the report electronically.  When complete, reports are submitted for approval and payment.

Report owners use the submit process as their electronic signature certifying the accuracy of the expenses.  Submitted reports follow the electronic approval path(s) designated by the Financial Officers of the University.  Details from reports with final approval are sent to the University accounting system for payment.

Reimbursement

Employees receive reimbursement by direct deposit. Non-employees receive reimbursement by a check mailed to the address designated on the expense report.

PCARD Charges

University purchasing card (PCARD) charges for travel, group meals and meeting expenses will automatically be sent into ERS for inclusion in an expense report.

ERS & onLion

ERS is integrated with the onLion Travel Services Reservation System.  ERS and onLion share a common home page named My Concur.   The Expense menu contains the functions for ERS.  The Travel menu is for onLion services.

Travel Policy

ERS provides consistent application of the University travel policy. Exceptions to policy will be flagged by the system.
