Select a Supervisor for Employees with Multiple Appointments for NUFinancials Expense Reports

This job aid provides information for employees with multiple appointments on how to submit expense reports.

  • It must be selected before the expense report is submitted.
  • An approver can send back a submitted expense report if the routing needs to be changed.
  • Employees (or their proxies) can withdraw an expense report if no approvals have been applied and change the routing if needed.
