Process an Expense Report
A completed EMT Expense Report approver may be sent to either a recommender or an approver.
Expense Report Recommender
A person assigned the "Expense Approver" role in EMT, but without authority under
Section 34 of the Financial Administration Act (FAA). This person will review an ER and then forward it to another
recommender for review, or to an approver for authorization. For example, a supervisor will often review ERs and then
submit them to their manager for final approval.
Expense Report Approver
A person assigned the "Expense Approver" role in the EMT with authority under Section 34
of the Financial Administration Act. This means they have spending authority and can approve the Expense Report.
Once your ER is approved, the processor completes a final review of the ER by checking for errors, ensuring that the
paperwork is in order, and ensuring that the expenses comply with policy.
Once the ER has been processed, the data is fed into your department's Departmental Financial Management System
(DFMS).
Then you are reimbursed for your travel expenses.
